Lichfield Garrick Theatre & Studio
Latest Reviews
We went to watch only fools and boyce. The room only holds 150 people and it is in a smalll theatre style, however some of the chairs move on the top row.
VArious seets on the sides have limited view, that is not displayed on the ticket.
SOunf and Video all worked perfect and the show was clear.
Bar packed before shows but service was good and prompt.
Interval drinks in the correct spot and the correct order at half time :-)
Overall a 4 out of 5.
Needs improving and polishing to compete.
Great local theatre, but thats not what the garrick is aiming for.

Saw an excellent gig performed by a Shadows tribute group in the Studio Theatre. Intimate, good sound, good value and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the band. Balanced music with songs and stories. Played for over two hours. Great value!!!!!

We visited the Garrick Theatre last Saturday to see The Full Monty. This was our first visit and not knowing the theatre or Lichfield we thought it would be nice to have a pre performance evening meal. We telephoned prior to our visit and reserved a table. We were totally disappointed. The Green Room ( the only room to eat in) was a real let down. The lay out was more like a small work's canteen and the menu fell short of anything resembling a pre evening performance dinner. It was just hopeless. Because we had arrived at the theatre early, we were able to rush out and find lovely restaurant . As for The Full Monty it was very amateurish. In all a totally disappoint evening spent at The Garrick Theatre Lichfield . Never to be repeated.

We have been going to the Garric for many years both to the studio theatre and the main theatre, they put on some really top class shows and plays done by Lichfield operatics and Lichfield players and best of all some really top performers from all over the world. There is a great bar/ cafe there so we can even pop in when we are shopping in Lichfield for a coffee we are very fortunate to have such a splendid venue for all ages.

Great customer service by a lady working in the Green room. Tasty food and a good cup of coffee.

A recent visit to the Garrick proved as enjoyable as on a previous occasion. A compact theatre it may be but our experience of choosing seats in the stalls gives very good views in comfortable surroundings. Parking is available in the multi storey adjacent to the venue and currently is free if you are attending performances with a starting time of around 7.30 p.m. or onwards. Certainly this theatre is worth consideration both from their competitive prices and varied shows on offer.

Nathan Carter appeared at The Garrick on Tuesday and it was one of the best shows we have attended....very well supported by the lovely Niamh McGlinchey [gorgeous voice AND talented songwriter] plus the entire band, they are really talented and spot-on backing for every song. Well received by all age groups, it might be OTT to describe the show as "high octane" but it really "never missed a beat" throughout the entire evening. Can't decide whether to book Birmingham Town Hall or Prince of Wales in Cannock next March when he comes back....OR BOTH!

We recently visited to see an amateur production in the studio as opposed to the main auditorium. Both theatres offer superb seating and views. The bar areas are comfortable both on theatre nights or during the day if you wish to pop in for coffee and cake. Recommended

Proudly bearing the name of one of the City's illustrious sons, the Garrick is a superb venue, fresh and modern with a splendid auditorium and lovely staff. Everyone is made very welcome here and the facilities throughout are first class.
We look forward to returning for future shows.

the players portraying the story of buddy holly and the way it was acted out was excellent. Very well produced andlayed in what is a smallish theatre. The lead who played buddy was just superb. Big bopper was great and Richie valance brilliant. An excellent piece of entertainment

I've been to the Garrick many times & it is a good little theatre & puts on some good shows. For the first time last night I went to a production of the Hot Mikado in the Studio Theatre. It's a small arena with seating on 3 sides & the audience is very close to the stage. I won't do a review of Hot Mikado but it was worth seeing & had a young cast with a couple of good players. Not sure if it was to do with the theatre or the cast, but their radio mikes played up all night which spoiled it a bit. The seating was a bit cramped & rather uncomfortable but all in all, the Studio is a good place for a small production.

We live locally to the theatre and have not been disappointed with any of the shows as diverse as the Panto to Kapenters, from Rumours of Fleetwood Mac to Mowtown and everything in between.

Attended the Lichfield Garrick Theatre last night to see The Business of Murder by Richard Harris. What an excellent play the actors were brilliant, you could hear a pin drop in the theatre everyone was so engrossed. The theatre itself is so lovely and welcoming. The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. Would recommend a trip to the Garrick so check out their website to see what is forthcoming.

We have visited quite a few productions here and have been impressed by the venue each time. The theatre is bright and modern and has a restaurant and bar with cosy sitting
Armchairs from which to enjoy a drink or coffee either before the show or during. The sitting in the auditorium is good with plenty of legroom and not too many rows of seats so that you can see the stage from any position. There is a multi car park directly behind the theatre which is free to use after 6.00 pm and so travelling and parking are no problem. It is a pity that other theatres are not so accessible and a delight to visit.
