Line 51:
* Arguably, Petra of ''[[A Little Night Music]]'' with "The Miller's Son." She does have a relatively small part in the "A Weekend In The Country" musical sequence, but she is the only non-central character to get a song all to herself which ends up having little to no bearing on the plot.
* Nicely-Nicely Johnson in ''[[Guys and Dolls]]'', who gets one of the greatest [[The Eleven O'Clock Number|Eleven O'Clock Numbers]] in theatre - "Sit Down, You're Rocking the Boat".
* Martha from ''[[Spring Awakening]]'' is a minor character whose only major song is "The Dark I Know Well," a duet with Ilse about their physically {{spoiler|and sexually}} [[Abusive Parent|Abusive Parents]]s. The actresses frequently [[Tear Jerker|get thanked by fans who were also abuse victims]].
* Pan in ''[[Bat Boy the Musical]]'' qualifies with "Children Children". He shows up randomly and sings a song that is memorable for not fitting in with any of the rest of the show; particularly due to a bunch of animals that proceed to have an 'interspecies orgy' during said song. He is also never named.
