“When we see a children’s show at Half Moon we talk about it together for the rest of the weekend. It’s a highlight of our family time together. We feel welcomed and always discover something new and inspiring during our visit. The consistently high quality and thoughtful programme of theatre and community events makes us feel invested in as a family that lives in Tower Hamlets.”
