Canberra musician Genesis Owusu was forced to halt his Sydney concert on Thursday evening when the floor of the concert hall collapsed.
Social media footage from attendees showed flooring in the standing area of the Enmore Theatre had given way, though the carpeting remained intact over the rupture.
Fans reported that there were no injuries from the incident. NSW Ambulance media also said they did not attend.
