Looking for some musicals or plays where infidelity plays into the plot (whether it be the main plot or a sub plot)

Seems that it would be more difficult to list ones where there is NOT some.

Will this be your way of coming clean to a spouse/partner, or just confronting them?

How is Miss Saigon on the list?

The only thing I can think of is that Chris kissed Kim in the very end.

But if you know the circumstances, it's easy to understand why he did that in the moment.

Plus, considering he and Kim were never really married, he wasn't being unfaithful to her by moving on with Ellen.

I suppose Joe's storyline in Angels in America counts.

A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

Love Never Dies has (rather stupid) infidelity. But I encourage everyone to boycott this show as it's absolutely terrible and glorifies abuse.

Is infidelity limited to martial infidelity?
