My Fair Lady End Time?

[Dave13]

I have tickets to a 7pm show. The official running time is 2:55. Usually shows start 5 mins late. Is the show letting out before 10pm?

I am trying to decide if I have enough time to make a 10:30pm show for Then She Fell. It’s going to be super close with a Taxi or Uber.

I've seen the show three times now, and after curtain call, I've gotten out three hours on the dot after the performance start time (I think it's running around 2:57 or so now). You should be out of the Beaumont at 10pm promptly after a 7pm performance.

Thanks!

Try to sit on an aisle seat as well so it'll be easier to exit. I've noticed a good number of the show's audience tend to be on the older side who may walk slower especially on the stairs.

Thanks. Looks like I am on the aisle but Row B. So I would have to dart out quickly.

I’m seeing an 8pm show and will be seated in the front row center Loge a few seats in. Are there exits at the top of each staircase within the Loge? It’s hard to tell by the pictures.

Also, I’ll be getting out around 11pm and will want to take a few night shots of the Lincoln Center area. Afterwards, what’s the best way to get back down into the Broadway part of town where my hotel is? Would I be safe taking the subway at 11:30pm? Or should I use Uber? Thank you for any help. It’ll be my first time. :)

The subways will be perfectly fine at that time, especially the short distance between Lincoln Center and the Times Square area. It's actually also a pretty nice walk if the weather is good.

During previews they were sticking pretty firm to a 3 minutes after the hour for the downbeat. Now that they have gotten the run time to under 3 hours they may have relaxed that a bit (I haven't been there since opening), but I would imagine that they are still holding to that policy.

you'll be fine.  enjoy the show.  

subway is totally safe.  but to be completely honest, so is walking.  and that "broadway part of town" is about a 20 minute walk from Lincoln center.  Just walk down broadway.

You should be fine walking and/or Subway.  No reason to rush.

Thanks! Hopefully the weather will be nice for this visit in mid-August. A walk sounds nice, and it doesn’t look any further than about 20-25 minutes.

Any idea about the Loge exits? I’m assuming there’s one at the top of each aisle and on the sides. Just trying to strategize a quick theater exit after curtain call is over.
