Judy Holliday played the full Broadway run (924 performances) of Bells Are Ringing. And Rudy Valley was in How To Succeed for all, or nearly all, of its three and a half years. But Marian Seldes' record in Deathtrap would be a hard one to beat.

P.S. Gypsy played 702 performances, about 20 months, on Broadway.

I thought George Lee Andrews holds the record - 23 years or so in PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. That seems like a hard record to beat.

True, but I didn't think of him because I was thinking primarily of people playing leads--more or less.
