Locked In Writer Honoured at Awards

Half Moon is thrilled to announce Fin Kennedy was named runner up in the Brian Way Awards 2008 for his script Locked In, commissioned and produced by Half Moon in 2006 and touring again in Autumn 2008.


From a shortlist of seven productions Fin's script was chosen by the panel of judges for an award and described as "Modern poetry, fast, clever, sometimes beautiful and never patronising." The Brian Way Awards celebrate achievements of playwrights who write for young people and were created by The Arts Council, in honour of Brian Way, a passionate advocate for theatre in education.

A highly awaited revival of Locked In is touring nationally this autumn. Check out the Locked In page for more information.

Half Moon and Thomas Buxton School Drama Exhibtion opens 14 March

Pupils at Thomas Buxton School taking part in the project

Pupils in year 5 and year 2 have been working with the Half Moon Young People's Theatre to creatively explore the Science and PSHE curriculum. As well as doing drama, the children and their teachers have followed up each session with some fantastic art and writing. This work has all been collected and made into a display for the lunch hall by theatre designer Ruth Finn.

The exhibtion will highlight how:

The year 2 ‘super helpers' helped to save the Grandma whose house was flooded, and her Grandson who was so worried about starting a new school.

The year 5 pupils set up their own sustainable community and helped to fight off an environmental disaster.

There will be a short ceremony and presentations from each of the classes that have been involved in the drama project, before a chance to see the display.

For more information about this project please contact our projects team on 020 7709 8908 or email the team here
