Hi Folks I'm trying to find out what the longest running Australian musical is/was. By Australian musical I mean show that originated in Australia, not an import. Think Dusty, the first Boy From Oz, Priscilla, Dirty Dancing etc, not shows like Les Mis or Phantom. All feedback will be appreciated! Cheers.

Yes I read that too, but

Yes I read that too, but I'm pretty sure it was musicals that have played the longest in Melbourne, and was majority imported shows. It was because of Phantom's play length in the city. I think the highest was 492 performances...I'm not sure if it was Phantom or another show though. ____________________________________________________________ Currently working on: A nice break before jumping into my next project.
