[solved] Gary + Then She Fell in one night?

Is this doable? On my next 3-day trip in May to New York, I want to squeeze in Then She Fell in one of the nights. I'll be seeing Hadestown, Gary and Secret Life of Bees. All 3 start at 8PM. TSF starts at 10:30PM. So, Hadestown runs 2.5 hours, it'd be impossible. Bees hasn't announced the running time, if it's like 90 minutes, that would be the best choice. But tickets for TSF go fast, I don't think I can wait until Bees starts previews. From the early report of Gary, it seems I can be out of the Booth Theatre by 9:50PM. That gives me 40 minutes to get to Williamsburg. Is it too risky? Should I grab my ticket now?

Edit: update the title.

Gary could be down to 80-90 minutes by then. Or they could add scenes in previews. If you do see it, make sure you can get an aisle seat towards the rear of the orchestra to run out the door right as the curtain falls.

Google Maps says a cab would take minimum 42 minutes, and a subway would take 30-35 mins. But you never know what the subways are doing late at night (especially on a weekend), or if there's an accident on the road. And things like...waiting to hail a cab/walk to the subway, using the bathroom, bad weather, etc.

If you don't mind losing the money if you don't make it to Then She Fell in time, then go for it and make the most of your trip!! I wouldn't enjoy Gary as much if I knew I had to run out the door to make it somewhere else.

I wouldn’t chance it. We did TSF on a Sunday night three years ago after Aladdin back when Aladdin was still doing an early evening 6:30 p.m. Sunday performance. So we should have gotten out of Aladdin around 9:00. Then headed over to Brooklyn (via Subway) for TSF (I believe at 10:30). I think we had a little bit of time beforehand outside, but not much. I wouldn’t get tickets for TSF unless you know you’ll be done with your evening show and back out on the sidewalk no later than 9:10 p.m.

Update: We were posting at same time so I didn’t see yours until I posted mine. Your solution sounds perfect!!!!

FYI - back in February 2016, we saw Noises Off, Aladdin and Then She Fell on a Sunday. Enjoy!
