Walking around at night

My daughter and I are travelling to NYC this weekend to see a couple of shows for her 16th birthday. I have never been, although she has with friends. How safe is it to walk to an 8:00 pm show and then back to the hotel afterwards? This is the Broadway and 51st St. area that I am talking about. Should we plan on getting a taxi? (It is only 2-3 blocks.) Will it be hard to get a cab after the show ?

It is COMPLETELY safe and very enjoyable. NYC is actually quite safe and you%26#39;ll be in the midst of lots and lots of people (and I mean big crowds in the theater district after the shows let out). In fact, I suspect that walking around the area may be the highlight of your visit.

As the previous poster said, it is safe. To go 2 or 3 blocks, a taxi is not necessary. Just note that the area around Times Square is teeming with people--especially after plays get out-- so often walking is slow going.
