ST trivia; What musical is #1 in ticket sales in the most countries in the world?

Posted by Inigo (aka Inigo) Oct 28 '24, 05:47

Not the most tickets sales worldwide, but the musical that is #1 in ticket sales in the most countries.

By my count, it's #1 in 25 countries.

  - Huh - Prince of Tennis is based on a manga and every six month a new musical comes out, covering a new story arc. It's been going for 20+ years -- (link) - Roger More Oct 28, 07:05

  - Nice! I don't understand why exactly. Do the countries all have something in common? Seems pretty American. Maybe that's why. -- nm* - Volnelk Oct 28, 06:10 7
    - Possibly because it's cheap to stage? None of the countries - Nigeria? Myanmar? Iran? - are known for their spectacular high-production value musicals -- nm - Roger More Oct 28, 06:56 2
      - Actually, read the fine print - this isn't about ticket sales, it's "most searched" - Roger More Oct 28, 07:00 1
