How many times does one have to perform an average broadway show?

8 times a week if there's no alternate. 6 times a week if there's an alternate.

Actual numbers vary from production to production but usually those are the numbers.

The average run of an adaptation in the last 30 years is 644 performances. The average run of an original musical is only 331 performances, about half of the adaptation average. Of the original musicals produced in the last 30 years, 30% were open for less than a month. 7 of those musicals closed in one week or less.

We recently learned that the majority of the movie will take place in Arkham Asylum, and a new rumor may now explain those much-discussed musical elements.

According to our old friends at the Weekly Planet Podcast, Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn will have a bigger role than originally reported, with the story playing out entirely from her perspective. Apparently, this is where the song and dance numbers come in, as Harls "views her relationship with Joker" through musical sequences.

That means she's coming to slay in a "SoLo MoViE":darkmode:

That sounds labor intensive imo. Gaga's health can't handle that. She's better off writing for the play instead. Has there ever been special performances/portrayals where an actor only does a few performances?

She doesn't have to be the lead actress. Her stage time can be very short per performance.

Not if she wants to be eligible for an acting Tony.

Agreed and yes, there were. I will have to look for an example but I do remember something like this happened a couple of times.

Yeah, she can go the Cindy Lauper route and just write or compose something. Cindy won a Tony for composing the score for Kinky Boots. Or she can produce something like Jennifer Hudson.

The lowest effort would be ~100 performances with like 10 mins stage time :icant:

But she will need a HUGE song to win a Tony this way

I feel she should start producing more things. Plays and even TV shows. Even if she doesn’t win anything right away, it will give her more credibility. Even Drake produced Euphoria lmao

The list of producers is getting so long nowadays

In any case she has not an acting Oscar nor any Emmy yet so we're really getting ahead of ourselves here

True. I think she should focus on becoming a Hollywood mainstay for now. Broadway can come when she’s older. These are her prime years, she should make more blockbuster movies.

Funnily enough, it usually works the other way. Or at least traditionally.
