[[folder:Theatre]]
* ''The Musical of Musicals'', a play that parodies various... well, musicals, registers this complaint about the works of StephenSondheim ("Unlikable people with lives that are hollow / It's all food for thought, but a bit hard to swallow...")
* All of the characters in ''Theatre/TheThreepennyOpera'' an example of this. KurtWeill and Creator/BertoltBrecht did this intentionally, as not a single character is sympathetic in their motives, actions, or expressions. This was in part because it was a political commentary on capitalism and corruption. An example of tropes are not bad.
* ''Theatre/MotherCourageAndHerChildren'' is another Brecht work that is deliberately populated almost entirely by unsympathetic characters (Kattin is the sole possible exception: she's mute and is victimized several times, but ultimately is killed during her futile effort to rouse sleeping villagers to the approach of the attacking army.) Even as each of her children are killed, the audience is discouraged from feeling any sympathy for Mother Courage; in fact, Brecht revised the ending following a production which he felt made Mother Courage ''too sympathetic'' to the audience.
