im stuck on the part of the mission where you take the key from the music stand, which starts the conversation with dean. after he activates the hologram guards, all of the doors in the theater are locked and i cant go anywhere without being attacked by the guards or having my collar beep. help would be greatly appreciated.

head straight to the wall and there will be a door there were you will be able to use the key.

I got stuck for a bit on this too. You want to make a move for the door that's to the right of the stage (it's pretty dark so you may not see it at first). Go inside, close it, and there will be a hologram emitter that you can deactivate if you have a 90 or 100 Repair skill - it's on the wall the opened door was covering up. Skill magazines come in handy.

do you mean the backstage door to the left of the stage? every door ive tried in the theater is locked, the key i picked up doesnt work

When I went through (dying multiple times) the door to the left of the stage (where the compass marker is) would always be locked for some reason. There is a door on the right wall to the right of the stage which is the only one that the key would ever work in for me.

dear god, it worked this time. thanks for the help, i think it glitched or something, cuz i reloaded and the key worked

yeah im stuck. i have veras key and when i go to unlock the door it starts a new objective to find the backstage key and it points to the music stand in front of the stage. the thing is, i picked it up and it still points me there. is this glitched or something???

Lol you have to have a Perc. of 6 to ask: "my left or yours?"

I used a stealth boy to grab key ,or you can just go stealth,that way no conversation with dean.Now facing stage use door to your right,close it to avoid guards look up blue round device you need to take out.then three speakers.Fight with dead,I Killed him Jump over top of stairs ,run for door to leave before collar blows!Then head to elevator!!! that's all folks
