This week, we're delighted to be welcoming the acclaimed Shanty Theatre Company to Half Moon for the first time with their colourful, magical and musical adaptation of Brian Patten's well-loved book. Effortlessly combining live music, clever ditties, fairy tales from around the world and ingenious storytelling, The Story Giant is the perfect half term treat for only £6 each.

On Saturday 1 November as part of our #LimehouseLandmark season, performances of The Story Giant are complemented by a special exhibition showcasing photos and press cuttings from our building's history, storytelling sessions and the chance to dress up in historical costumes and have your photo taken in our Time Machine photo-booth. All these events are free to attend.
