evening would be extremely more difficult to win than a matinee. Matinees are not as crowded. In fact several times when my cousin and I have done the matinee we didn't win, but were able to buy partial view for the same $25 a ticket, and got into the theatre and realized we had better seats than some of the lotto winners.
In regards to the cast. The Chicago cast is truly amazing, I think they are very close to beating the broadway cast. The broadway cast seems to sometimes just be going through the motions of the show, the Chicago cast is full of energy and is always "on". I've seen the cast several times with AnaKate, KristyStacie, and all the understudies at one time or another. No matter what cast you get you will not be disappointed. It is completely worth it. And Telly, who plays Boq brings a lot to the show as well...cuz the character of Boq can be pretty boring, but Telly makes it something unique.
