I think they do at noon; I am not certain. I can find out for you (my son lives right there). In the meantime, you might have success calling the Borders there and asking (their address is 165 N. State Street Chicago 60601).

Thanks again for the info. Don't bother your son with the question. Have decided I'm not willing to "risk" a lottery. Will simply buy tix is we decide to go.

The front row of the Dress Circle is about $95 for Wed. matinee - not sure where the $29 came from. It's never been anything less than 3 times that much.

BTW, for anyone not aware, this show closes in Chicago in January.

My post specifically said NOT front row....but yes, I paid $29. And that was late Aug of this year. They were sold as Dress Circle partial view but none of the action was missed.

Front few rows of the Orch were only $85 at that time (for weekday shows) so I'm not sure where you get your numbers from, but that was certainly my experience.

Sorry, I misread your post. Nevertheless, I get my information from buying tickets on November 6 at the box office. I also overheard from someone trying to buy tickets at the next window that obstructed view tix for that night were $45 - not sure of the location otherwise.
