* ''Theatre/AMirror'': The play, which has NoFourthWall, is initially presented as "The Wedding of Leyla & Joel" at Vorbak Memorial Hall, in the capital city of an unnamed country with a repressive regime. The audience are handed an order of service as they take their seats, awaiting the bride's arrival. One of the guests - a secret police officer - leaves a couple of minutes into the ceremony. As soon as everyone's sure he's really gone, the cast scraps the pretence that it's a wedding and starts to perform an illegal, unsanctioned play instead.

* At the end of ''Joe Schmo 2'', the second season of ''Series/TheJoeSchmoShow'', when Austin Newton-Rice and Piper Davidson decide to renew their commitment to each other, host Derek Newcastle ("Ralph Garman") suggests that he marry them right then and there on national television. He gets as far as the SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace bit when Bryce, who was eliminated from the show for killing the falcon Montecore, bursts in to say that he can't marry them because they're both actors and so is everyone else on the show, including himself, except for the two chosen schmoes.
