* In ''[[Oklahoma!]]!'', there is a Dream Ballet after Laurey takes smelling salts to help her decide whether to take Curly or Jud to a dance.
** Famous as the ''Oklahoma!'' Dream Ballet is, ballets in Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals aren't always dreams—those in ''[[Carousel]]'' and ''[[The King and I]]'' don't involve dreams.

** This scene is spoofed in Matt Stone and Trey Parker's early film ''[[Cannibal! The Musical]]''
