If you go up the stairs as librarian, the paintings room will despawn, after messing around you can get kinda close to theater. Though this wouldnt save minutes of time it would save 5 or so seconds of not waiting for the librarian to hit the stage. Is there a way into the theater via the painting room out of bounds?

we haven't figured out any yet. we're trying, but so far, it doesn't seem possible.

My pal and I were testing this for a solid 3 hours earlier and found nothing useful. Unfortunately, I think Jeph may be correct in that it's probably not doable. If someone proves us wrong, good, let us know how you did it.
