Please don't bump so soon after your first post, it's quite annoying. You should only bump if your topic falls off the 1st or even 2nd page. (Personally, I wouldnt bump at all, I hate it).

I would suggest leaving after the final curtain (after everyone takes their bow) Depends on where your seats are, how many people you see getting up and leaving, and how long you actually want to stand around the door and wait for the actors to come out. You could have a short wait or a super long one. The longest wait I had was 5 hours. The shortest was about an hour and a half.

Edited to add: And even standing by the stage doors is NOT a guarantee that you'll get close enough or even get an autograph from the actors. There is more than one way out of most of the theatres in NYC.

Definitely curtain call.

Usually I prepare myself to leave during that time. I wait to clap for all the actors.

In your case I would wait till Daniel bows and then start heading towards the door. Very quickly!

If you can try to get in the front that's awesome :D
