In NYC next weekend and thinking of rushing a couple of matinees.
Any advice on which of these would be easier/most likely to be successful?

I rushed the Play That Goes a wrong yesterday - it was very easy to get tickets. We were first in line getting there 1:15 before the box office opened. Next people didn't get there until 25 minutes later. I'm fairly certain all 25-30 people who were on line by the time the doors opened got in, although it was a two show day. And the show was very very funny. I recommend it.

Groundhog Day - Easy for rush, plus you can enter the online lotto ahead of time and know the day before if you've won. They'll send a lotto loser discount code if you don't, so you won't even have to go to the box office. Unless you want to avoid the TM fees.

I rushed Amelie quite a few times, and looking across the street while in line on all those occasions, A Bronx Tale looks like a very easy rush!

I found A Bronx Tale, War Paint, Groundhog Day and The Play the Goes Wrong to all have easy rushes!! I got tickets to all but Groundhog Day several hours before the show. As for GH the lottery system is really handy!

Indecent is super easy to rush and the seats are very good.
Go see it! It's a great play!

If you want to see the play that goes wrong you can save your time and just get balcony seats for the same price in advance. The view is fine for the price.

I recently rushed War Paint on a Saturday matinee - right before showtime. Literally got the last rush ticket at 1:45. So that's probably a good bet. I also had easy luck with rush to Bandstand and Doll's House, which aren't on your list but if you haven't seen them, they are GREAT.
