As a teenager I worked in RCMH as a doorman in the 1970’s.
The underground passage was closed for security reasons.
If the doors were left open for people to exit we would get people
sneaking in without paying. They would sometimes leave just one door open from the RCA building to the Music Hall and a dorrman (sometimes me) would be stationed there for a tour. That was boring !
If we had a large tour group with pre-purchased tickets we would admit them through this entrance, also groups that were doing a tour of Rock Center would come through these doors being RCMH was part of that tour. I watched the show on RCMH this evening and enjoyed it alot. Those of us who worked at RCMH back in the early and mid-seventies saw the decline of this great theater ! Was amazed this evening to see the Treasurer of RCMH Box Office on TV tonight he used to be the Manager of the Ushers back when I worked there.
