Just as an average, a script is usually one page per minute, so a 2 hour movie script would be about 120 pages but it can be longer or shorter depending on the writers descriptive style, or economy of language.

If one page of script equals about one minute of film time, your script should be about 150 pages.

How many pages are in the script for a musical?

That depends on how long you think it should play... what time the audience should be able to get out of the theatre. There's a standard format, with standard font and spacing, for typing musical scripts (you can find reproductions of sample pages in Aaron Frankel's WRITING THE BROADWAY MUSICAL), according to which each page is deemed to be roughly about 1.5 minutes of stage time. The first act of Sondheim/Furth's COMPANY in this format is 58 pages, which would mean the first act would play in a little less than an hour and a half (87 minutes). Add a ten minute intermission, and the audience will have been in the theatre for 97 minutes at the beginning of your second act. Assuming your curtain went up at 8PM, it is now 9:37. If you want the curtain to come down at 10PM, you have less than a half hour for your second act. More realistically, figure that the curtain comes down sometime between 10 and 11. Conventionally, you want the second act to be a big shorter than the first act. If the second act were, say, 48 pages, that would bring the curtain down at 11:09, so if you want them to get out before 11, you have to shorten one act or the other. Of course, you don't HAVE to have an intermission. Some shows don't. But those are usually much shorter shows. After 97 minutes, a lot of people want a crack at the restroom. So how long should your show be in the theatre? PHANTOM OF THE OPERA on Broadway is two and a half hours, including a fifteen minute intermission. ONCE is two hours and fifteen minutes, including a fifteen minute intermission. KINKY BOOTS is two hours and twenty minutes, including a fifteen minute intermission. A GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER is the same. FIRST DATE is ninety minutes, with NO intermission.
