My father fell asleep during Titanic and I dozed for a bit during Brooklyn. I think that's it.

I saw Street Corner Symphony when I was quite young. I had a crashing headache at dinner, and my mother gave me some medicine. Within the first 15 min of the show, I feel asleep on my mother's jacket, and didn't wake-up until the very end when everyone was clapping.
Gem of the Ocean... First act (Had to get a Red Bull during Intermission) But it was due to lack of sleep.
42nd Street (1st Act) That was due to boredom.
Take Me Out (1st act) Due to boredom and warmth of theatre.
"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

me personally...Fell asleep in Life x 3 in London...overtired, and a little bored come the third time the same scenario is done dozed a bit in the first act of After the Fall...until Carla Gugino came on. Then I was wide awake...and so was the show. She was such a shot of energy. Hope she is remembered come Tony Nomination Time
I usually leave at intermission, if I'm so bored I'm falling asleep. Only actually slept at one Broadway show - The Old Neighborhood (a Mamet show with Patti LuPone).

I feel asleep during the Phantom movie too, I dunno, I also forgot to say I fell asleep during Cats and Evita.... Must have something to do with Andrew Loydd Webber?
I most definitely have issues with my word choices on this board.
I am ashamed to say that when I was in London this past summer I fell asleep during the first act of Les Miz. In my defense, the previous day I had left for the Philadelphia airport at 2 in the afternoon, got to London the following morning without having slept at all during the flight, then went on a tour of the city, then we took an hour to check into my hotel for an hour, then we went to dinner, and then we went to the West End and saw Les Miz that night.
I've never fallen asleep during a play, but I did fall asleep during the film STAR WARS, in 1977. Sound asleep, I was so bored. When I woke up, I looked around, very embarrassed, and realized that my wife was sleeping as well. That it went on to become a phenomenon, has perplexed us to this day.
