The north entrance of the Opera house
block should be kept open for the use
of the public, for use in emergency, if
nothing else. Wednesday night, the

in the corridor and timed the crowd
as it left the building, states that 20
minutes elapsed before the last person
left the door, whereas had the north
exit been open, the building could have
been cleared in half the time.
