No extra room mics... We didn't think about that until later. The Sydney Opera House actually has a stereo microphone in the ceiling for ambience, but we all forgot about it in the rush to get the rig up. Because we had to be able to edit between rehearsal and performance (already enough of a challenge because of the acoustic change of an audience), we couldn't add that microphone at the last minute. Sort of a bummer as it would have sounded good. I still got a pretty good recording, though without it. Just means I'll have to use a little digital verb in the final product.
