So you're almost at the end of the show, and things are looking very uncertain, but you know the show's about to end. That's when you know this trope is about to kick in. The Eleven O'Clock Number is a song in a musical placed near the end of the second act, before the plot's loose ends are tied up. The song usually represents an emotional turning point or revelation for the main character(s) and is almost always the last number in the show that isn't a reprise of an earlier song or the absolute final song. The term is a holdover from the days when all musicals started at 8:30 PM and had to have a climactic song around 11:00, because it was preferable to have audiences out shortly afterwards. In an exception to the anti-rule that musical numbers don't have to be, and usually aren't, written in the order in which they appear in the show, the 11:00 number is very often the last one added to the show. Largely a Theater trope. Seen in musicals and works that follow the musical format, as well as the odd Concept Album. Compare and contrast Climactic Music. Not to be confused with The Song Before the Storm, which is sung before the climax begins, not to initiate it, or Big Finale Crowd Song which is usually at the end of the musical, rather than close to the end. |

Discussed in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend's Grand Finale. Musical theater superfan Rebecca talks about how how the eleven o'clock number came to be and then sings about her journey so far in a song full of callbacks aptly titled "Eleven O'Clock". The callbacks are in the form of dresses on mannequins, and at one point she forms an eleven-o'clock with her body. "The Darkness" is a slow but climactic love ballad that sums up Rebecca's drive to obsess over different men, thus answering the dramatic question that kicked off the entire series. "Love's Not a Game" is a giant, zany, high-energy number that gives all the side characters outside of the Love Dodecahedron one last chance to show off before the plot turns squarely back to Rebecca. “After Everything I’ve Done For You (That You Didn’t Ask For)� is the eleven o’clock number of season one. |
