A case is there for ACL and Follies... but I don't think it is for Company. Company doesn't have events that impact each other, it is a series of scenes that do not impact each other, outside of the growing emotional impact. Let me know if i'm not remembering it correctly, but there is a reason why it's known as being plot-less.

I would also say Assassins has no plot, unless you make a case that the Assassins conspired to and then influence Oswald to kill JFK, rather than seeing that scene as the same as the other scenes in terms of dramatizing an aspect of that historical moment (and the assassins appearing to Oswald are just a musically dramatic way to personify what might have been going on in his head). I dunno... interesting, and maybe what happens in Assassins constitutes a plot... but I also think it's okay to not have a plot.
