Really depends on who/what is playing. Couple weeks ago Utopia played 2 sets with a 20 minute intermission, it was near 11 when we got out (not complaining). Comedy shows, OTOH, are usually done in less than 2 hours. Google for show reviews of the artist you are seeing and you might be able to get an idea from another show. BTW out the side instead of front entrance usually gets you out quicker. Also the stage entrance is on Lake Street and you can hang near the door and maybe see the artist leave the building and get into their bus.

Depends on the show

Matthew, it does depend on the show but there is usually a 1/2 hour intermission so yes you would probably get out at about 10 or 10:30 at least.

We didn't get out till a quarter to 11 N there's a massive crowd congestion that leaves all @ the same time. It took us probably 20 mn to get out and that was literally walking aggressively thru the crowd. We apologized to everyone we passed.
