I see that the show run time is 2.5 hours. Has anyone been recently and can say they were outside the theater by 10:30 for a 8pm start? I’m seeing a 8pm show soon and i want to be sure I’ll be able to catch my train after. Thanks!

1.  Shows never start on the hour.....8:05 is the earliest it will start.  

2.  It takesa good 5 minutes (at the minimum) to get yourself OUT of the theater.

I don't know what time you need to catch your train, but I would say the earliest you would be on the street is 10:40, IF luck is entirely on your side.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Yes, I saw a night show and was out around 10:25/10:30. You should be fine. Enjoy- it's a great show!

5 minutes??? What are you doing that it takes you 5 minutes to get out?

I was in the middle of the row and it took me maybe 2 minutes at the most to get out.

For planning purposes, from time of show ending to on the street, I agree with dramamama.  Probably longer with hats, coats and gloves this time of year.  Depends on where you are too - orchestra, mezz, balcony.  And the length of the curtain call.
