More than 80 people are injured, four seriously, after part of a ceiling in London's Apollo Theatre collapsed during a show, police say.
The venue in Shaftesbury Avenue was packed for a performance of The Curious Incident Of The Dog in the Night-Time.
Eyewitnesses heard "a crackling" noise before the collapse at about 20:15 GMT. Theatre-goers left covered in debris.
London Ambulance said there were 81 walking wounded and that all those who were trapped earlier had been freed.
Some 25 ambulance crews and an air ambulance were at the scene, it said.
London Fire Brigade said four people were seriously injured but none have life-threatening injuries.
It said its "search is now complete" and the theatre has been sealed off.
