I haven't seen it but isn't Billy in Billy Elliot on most of the time?
Yes.
Yes.

I may be wrong, but I think that Sonny has a bit more stage time than Clio/Kira in Xanadu.

Please! The whole show is only 90 mins long!
Too long!
Too long!

Michael Jibson, as Joe Casey, in the musical OUR HOUSE, on the West End, barely EVER left the stage, and when he did, it was only for his 29 costume changes.

Kira and Sonny both are on stage almost the entire running time of Xanadu. (And if you like looking at Cheyenne, like me, you are very thankful for this!)

Shocked that Salieri (AMADEUS) hasn't come up yet. He's pretty much the show.

Daisy and Violet are hardly ever offstage in SIDE SHOW, just during More Than We Bargained For and for maybe five minutes during Come Look at the Freaks.

Max Bialystock - I believe he's onstage for all of Act 1 except "Opening Night, and "I Wanna Be A Producer". In Act 2, he only leaves the stage for "That Face" and "Springtime for Hitler".
Jo in Little Women - The actress playing Jo is onstage almost the entire show.
Kim in Miss Saigon
Seymour in Little Shop of Horrors.

Man in The Chair literally never left the stage, only like once. Also when Kristen was in The Apple Tree she was on the stage the whole time. I believe it's Paul in A Chorus Line and Cassie who are on stage the longest.

I think in Lestat Hugh was off stage for when Carolee sang Beautiful Boy and then tiny snippets here or there. He pretty much never left stage.

Wouldn't the person in a one man or one woman shows be onstage the longest?
Other than that Elle in Legally Blonde and Elphaba in Wicked.

Jane and Michael Banks in Mary Poppins, or even Bert and Mary.... Practically never leave the stage (or briefly)
Narrator in Joseph is onstage for most of the scenes, maybe not most time, but most scenes.
