Journey's End at the Belasco Theatre has excellent characterizations. It a very good play. But the theater itself has a dangerous condition.
I was following an usher showing me to my seat at H16 when bang! my head hit an overhead beam. Many people already sitting down heard the thud and asked how I was, as did the usher. What could I say, my head hurt and I may have had a concussion (fortunately I seem OK now). At intermission I saw another person also hit his head (more gently). I imagine several people every day must injure themselves on this large beam with no warning or padding on it. You basically can't get to your seat without ducking under it. I guess if you are under 5'11" you may be safe. I hope someone brings this hazard to the attention of someone at the theater organization who can do something about it.
