Heroic BSOD/Theater

"De Guiche (trying to draw away the dismayed viscount): Come away, Viscount!"
 * In Ajax, after having been induced to madness and very publicly slaughtering livestock while under the impression they were his allies, Ajax is fairly subdued once he is in his right mind again and discovers everyone knows what he's done. This is a prelude to suicide.
 * Cyrano De Bergerac: Viscount de Valvert tries to bully Cyrano telling him his nose is very big. After Cyrano ends his own Hurricane of Puns (a Long List of genially funny Gag Nose s), he provokes a mini Heroic BSOD to Viscount De Valvert.

""No more feelings... Time to shut the door ... Just no more ...""
 * In Into the Woods, the Baker, after hearing some terrible news, goes into one of these, in song form. Literally, he sings a song about how he just wants to stop everything.


 * Miss Saigon: John, to Kim, about Chris. "He went crazy when he lost you, spoke to no one for a year. Then he finally said I'm home now, my life has to go on here." Of course, it didn't really go on--earlier in the play we see him waking from a bad dream and his wife's lyrics indicate that this is a nightly occurrence.
