"Be Prepared" from The Lion King has the WORST dance break. I felt embarrassed watching it to be honest. Not that it helps you :)

"Opening: I Hope I Get It" from A Chorus Line has various dance breaks throughout the song.

I know this might not be from 'a well-known' show, but 'Morning Person' from Shrek instantly came to mind. Probably because it 'force-feeds' the 'dance break' aspect.

'Positive' from Legally Blonde.

(too contemporary?)
