Blithe Spirit question.

Since the show has not performed previews yet, there is not telling the runtime. I would like to get tix for an 8pm performance, however my bus leaves the cuty at 11:30. I pick my bus up at Maddison Sq Garden. Does anyone think I will not be able to catch my bus if I see an 8pm performance? Thanks for your help!

If the show runs 3 hours, and that's highly unlikely, you'll be getting out at 11 PM. That gives you 1/2 an hour to get from 44th street to 34th street. You can do it. Chances are you'll have a bit more than 1/2 an hour.

Why don't you try for a matinee and give yourself some more time?

Thanks Dollpop, you're always the first one to answer my question! I am already seeing Shrek at 2pm.

As memory serves, Blithe Spirit is in the 2-2.5 hour range...so you should be perfectly fine.

However, I haven't seen it since 2001 or so, so don't take my word for fact.
