Saw this last night. We weren't disappointed! Well acted, very funny and thoroughly enjoyable. The princess stole the show, although Lady Lark was was pretty brilliant too as were the rest of the cast. Very professional, would highly recommend a visit to see the show.

A non stop tribute romp back to the Eighties with fast moving costume changes, great lighting, superb sound alikes and an upbeat vibe that stayed with you long after the show. The artists covered all the top eighties acts from Frankie Goes to Hollywood to Bananarama, Soft Cell to the Human League, Madonna to Cyndi Lauper, Duran Duran to Erasure. Their energy levels were superb and it was truly one of the best shows i have seen at the Garrick. And don't get me started on the Legs and Co-esque dancing troupe. Sexy was an understatement but it was all done in a very tongue in cheek way that epitomised eighties pop. A fantastic show! Please Garrick book them again and Garrick thankyou for being the great theatre experience that you always are!!!

Went to see The Manfreds in June. As always, the staff were efficient but very welcoming. The show was sold out. Good that once again The Garrick got the performers to appear for a chat at the interval. Excellent show. Sound and lighting added to the enjoyment.

This show was by Staffordshire college and the performers were so professional.

We are very lucky around Birmingham and the West Midlands to have several theatres onnour doorstep but I really like the Garrick in Lichfield. Avoiding the city traffic and expensive car parking tips the Garrick into our first choice. Add Tony Christie at his very best and most relaxed and the evening was just perfect.

We went last night to see Tony Christie. Very disappointed with the first half when we were entertained by the support act Dave Day for at least 35 minutes, then we went to the interval He was very boring and nearly sent us to sleep. Tony Christie made up for it in the second half with a fabulous performance. We had some friends in the audience who had seen Tony previously and there had been no support act, they said they would not go again if Dave is the support act.

Went with 3 friends to see Tony Christie last night (the guy still has it!) and compared to larger theatres in big cities this has a lot of pluses. Good wines, nice selection of gins and great food choices at a good price if you want to eat first. Plenty of friendly and helpful staff and easy access to stalls for any disabled visitors. Highly recommended and must use this place more!

...Oddsocks!
I love the anarchy of their production of the Tempest, it's Shakespeare but not as we know it.
The Garrick is an ideal venue for them because there's little demarcation between the stage and the audience. There is an air of informality, and having been to several productions here, it is one of my favourite theatres.

Had a fantastic time at The Garrick last night. Saw 'some guys have all the luck' for the second time at this lovely little theatre. Such an excellent tribute to Rod Stewart which had all the crowd singing along. We often visit The Garrick as the acts are quality, the staff are friendly and it dosn't seem to matter where you sit there is always a good view of the stage. Chris E & Elaine P

A fantastic show although not a great opera lover it was a really enjoyable night,only down side the catering areas were far to small for the size of the theatre,we couldn't get a table so walked into the city for a drink.

Most enjoyable performance. We chose this event because our original selection of Quill which had to be cancelled due to bad weather earlier this year. Snow, ice etc. Garrick management e mailed me to let me know and provided tickets for the Beatles. Grand show and it came with the customary welcome from the theatre staff, so thank you all.

Superbly organised, hassle free evening. We arrived around 5:30 and set up for the evening. The staff were friendly and helpful, the screen was superb and easily viewable by all. We’ll definitely be rebooking.

This is our first visit to Lichfield and we had booked online for this show knowing nothing about the theatre or the play. What a lovely gem of a theatre The Garrick is. A most enjoyable production put on by an amateur group, in the studio theatre, who were most professional in their delivery - it certainly kept you guessing until the end. The seats are more comfortable than in a lot of theatres we have visited. We enjoyed a coffee in the green room before the performance began. The car parking is nearby and is free after 6.30pm. A lovely evening out.

Being of Irish descent this really appealed to me. Tickets were booked for Saturday night's performance and we arrived to find that a couple of the stars of the show were outside the front of the Garrick. One of the chaps said "I'm in that poster" and sure enough he was!
The show was absolutely fantastic - the authentic looking set and fabulous background films only adding to a wonderful atmosphere.
The energy, singing, dancing, instrument playing and brilliant narrative led to a most entertaining evening.
The only downside? Sitting in the stalls, every so often bright white lights would flood the stalls and they really hurt your eyes. Are they really necessary?
Needless to say, whilst we will definitely be back, we won't be sitting in the stalls again.
The Garrick is a beautiful small theatre offering a wide range of shows but we will most certainly be looking to see this again as it was so very well done. My only wish? That I could have taken my Dad - he'd have loved every minute of it.

What a fantastic show, it was a brilliant atmosphere from the first song. Apart from the superb music the background films and beautifully narrated stories about the Dubliners story, made it such a great show and one I would highly recommend. I will certainly be looking out for the next tour. The stage set, in a bar, made it so authentic too.

We have been to this theatre a few times and each have been excellent. Staff are really nice, very friendly. The theatre is small, but this adds to the experience as you are so close to the show. We saw Seven Drunken Nights, a Dubliner tribute and it was fantastic. If you get a chance go to the theatre, you won’t be disappointed.

We popped into the Garrick Theatre which is just a short walk from the market place in Lichfield as we wanted some information on what was on.
Really friendly and helpful staff and plenty of leaflets available.
Very interesting and modern theatre that was opened in 2003,

First visit to the Garrick Theatre and very impressed with service we received. As for the show it was absolutely fantastic, if you get chance to see him I would highly recommend that you do. Very nice theatre and Will be going again when there is something I want to see. Really easy to get to with any form of transport.

Visited with my husband to see Mercury (a Queen Tribute Band). We chose seats about 4 rows back in the circle and we had an excellent view. Mercury were very talented and performed really well singing lots of Queen's popular songs. Just one criticism, on some songs it was difficult to hear the lead singer above the loud music, but apart from that the evening was enjoyable.
