"Get out front" is a more casual way to say 'go out to the front'. In this case, "front" implies the stage or the front of the building. Unfortunately you can't say "get out back" but you can say "go back in" or "go to the back". "Out front" refers to the front section of a building, plot, or piece of land. Ex: "Why are you hiding in here? The customers are waiting for you! Get out front!" Ex: She drove fast and arrived half an hour later to the safe house and parked out front.
