We'll sleep when we're dead. 

Unofficial stagehand/techie motto.

Techie 1: How long is this call gonna last?

TD: As long as it takes. If we're here at midnight and it's not done, we keep going.

Techie 2: It's OK, we'll sleep when we're dead.

We'll sleep when we're dead. 

Slogan printed on crew shirts for the US National Tour of Les Miserables. A quote from the production carpenter of the tour.

Person 1: "You guys started at midnight and went straight to 11pm that night? Don't you need to sleep?"

Person 2: "Sleep? Nah, we'll sleep when we're dead."
