Those little old West End theatres are small and more or less cylindrical in shape, taller than they are long. They seem flimsily built and in ropey condition too, with the audience the heaviest component...
Even so you wouldn't really want big chunks of jagged old gilded stucco coming own on your unsuspecting head. I bet the Apollo's insurers have gone a bit pale.
A large area of thick Victorian plaster ceiling came down on our bed in London once, fortunately when we weren't in it. Cause I think was a water leak above it. There were some big bits of plaster, a good couple of kilos.
