Walking from Belasco to Radio City?

Hello. I am planning on seeing Network at 7:00 on a Saturday night in December. I was wondering if it would be possible for me to walk to a 10pm performance of the Rockettes afterward? Could someone give me an idea how long that walk would take? Thanks very much!

About 10 minutes Tops. It is six blocks.

Well, we don’t know how Long NETWORK is yet.

Actually, Telecharge has Network listed as being 2 hours with no intermission.

Are you sure the show starts at 7:00? That is an odd starting time for a Saturday night.  Usually when a play starts earlier the running time is longer than 2 hours.  Something to think about.

This is a transfer, isn't it? It was about two hours in London.

Unless it's an error, Telecharge lists the Saturday evening performances at 7pm. Only two Saturdays in December are available for sale.

You could get there in 5 minutes or less if you really got your booty in gear.

The Rockettes do 10pm performances?

Except for the first preview, Wednesdays' and Saturdays' showtimes are 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. In London, the show was about 2 hours, with no intermission. Telecharge lists the running time as approximately 2 hours, with no intermission. These are all facts. Based on these facts, yes, you'll be able to make a 10 p.m. show at Radio City.

Like Hedwig, that performance may be a "bit racier"

It's a short walk, but allow extra time because December will be Christmastime, and the masses of tourists headed for the Rock Center tree will make sidewalks very crowded.

I would immediately go to Radio City, though, since that show runs like clockwork, and will begin at 10p. no matter how many people are still lined up outside queued to get in. The time issue will be based on the line into Radio City, not the distance from the Belasco.

Head up to Radio City immediately. The lines to get through security are at least 30 minutes. It says two hours on your ticket but no one pays attention. We arrived five minutes early and missed the first six numbers. Also, they are kidding about the 10 PM show being racy.... It is not like Vegas, it is always the same show.

Thank you to all who have replied. I will head over there immediately after Network is over. It has been a few years since I was last in the City and I have never been in December. I'm very excited!

I am also planning to see the Ferryman, Harry Potter, My Fair Lady, and Once on this Island. For my last show, I am trying to decide between Torch Song, To Kill a Mockingbird, or something else...any suggestions?
