Could be several things, but as others say, the coils,
igniters and ignition switch are notorious for dying as you
describe. If the dying occurs after warmup, then my money is
on the igniter being failed. Only buy an OEM coil.
Aftermarket ones do not last one. Consider changing the
igniter at the same time, since an aged coil can have
detrimental effects on the igniter.
The ignitor and coil are integral (literally) to the
distributor, being built right on its housing. It's
inaccurate to say "the distributor is failing." Not to be
persnickety but more to promote good communications so as to
get your car running a.s.a.p.

narrow this down a lot.
