Agree, a cautious attic reconnaissance is first. clean it from that side. If insulation is present, use gloves and try not to disturb it very much. Once the attic look see is done, put down a tarp, or plastic, and pull down the broken pieces. if the material is plain sheet rock and the home is going to be an investment, I would remove the entire ceiling, and put up new Cement backer board. This material can withstand the high moisture around a shower. If a good temp repair is needed, and the remaining material is solid, take a piece of 1/2" plywood that is 2" overlap of the hole. Glue it down with Construction adhesive. Cut a piece of sheet rock close to the hole shape (or moisture resistant rock, or cement board) put the piece up in the hole, and use 6 or 8 coated (rust proof) to hold it in place (put the screws in just a tiny bit below the surface). Use a product called Durahm's rock hard water putty as the compound. It will be water proof when set, and solid. It can be sanded. prime and paint the entire ceiling. I hope this helps. Jim
