Julia Roberts Stage Door - Arrival Time? — Page 3

Is the only way out of the theatre the front doors, or are there other doors on the left side that open up to let everyone out? I'm worried that even if I'm one of the first people out the front door, I'll get behind everyone coming out the left side of the orchestra.

WithoutATrace, thanks for the detailed info. I'm in Row M in the Orchestra, Seat 8 -- I guess I'll have to see how fast I can get out of there! I find it weird that you basically have to run out the door to get your Playbill signed!

mikem: from Row M, Seat 8, you are going to have to step over three people to your left (seats 2,4,6) as soon as the curtain falls for Act 2. Politely excuse yourself and walk to the back left corner of the theater. You can applaud there for curtain call and then go outside to the barricades.

cjoyce: Box B, I believe, is the box on the left of the house. This is good news for you if you want to make it to the stage door quickly. All you need to do is go down the stairs and you should be right by the doors. I would get up as soon as the curtain falls and stand on the left side of the orchestra while you applaud. Then you'll be right by the exit once curtain call is over.

WithOutATrace, I just wanted to thank you for the advice as I was successul in getting out last night from row A to get Julia's autograph after the show!! You are my hero. There were many people running up the aisle when the curtain went down so word is definitely getting out. As for the show, of the three plays I saw over the weekend it was better than Barefoot (not staying much I know) but could not compare to History Boys which was brilliant! I thought Julia was good, but Bradley in Act 1 gave the best performance of the three.

So the only doors people can exit from after the show are the ones that you come in through?

Are SRO ticket holders allowed to get her autograph, or is it just the regular seat ticket holders?

SRO ticket holders will probably have the easiest time getting out there quickly. good luck!

I was in the front row of the right orchestra and still got an autograph. When the curtain call was over and the curtain fell for the final time, I scooted across the front row to the left side of the theatre, and finagled my way out the doors. I was right near the front of the barricades, and all 3 players signed my playbill. Be sure you stay for the curtain call! It's only polite!

Princeton 78, you are a good thinker. I have to sit in the center (front row). However, I might try your strategy if people move quick enough.
