Friendly staff and helpful information about local characters as well as Johnson's life. Combine your visit with a look around the cathedral and Darwin's house, for a fascinating day out.

Extremely interesting collection. Perhaps less so for the less literary types but a good attempt here to include a bit of social history, art and books from the period and a dressing up area.
Quite tiny so nothing could be done in too much details but is was covered well and the missing bits filled in with a good audio visual presentation.
Very helpful lady welcoming visitors and a comprehensive bookshop downstairs. The less able can take a virtual tour which is pleasing to see.

Great theatre. Lots of variety in show programmes and the smaller sub theatre ( called the studio) is simply superb. Well supported by local amateur societies too. Great value and can't go enough. Plenty of local parking too.

Went to see " a murder is announced " it was superb the actors were totally believable. The theatre lacks the glamour of large theatres but it felt much more intimate and cosy. We noticed that there have been comments about pricey sweets etc but at least I don't have to put up with rustling wrappers! Only one minor point please don't open the outer doors from bar into the theatre as the noise in the bar distracts from the end of the performance

I attended the performance of Oliver in Saturday 12th March at 2:30pm and found that when myself and my two small children went to sit in our seats they were taken by other people instead. I had not purchased my tickets from the Garrick but through Walsall operatic society direct (who despite having sent several emails to are refusing to comment) so this is not the fault of the Garrick and they did do everything humanly possible to find us all seats close together so I will commend them highly for all of their effort. The staff from WOS were not bothered about the fact they had sold me the tickets and then resold them again and promised to rectify the situation during the first half of the show but in actual fact the guy left the theatre without attempting to sort out their messes or even an a simple apology about what was obviously their mess up.
The Garrick staff and management were amazing in doing their best when sorting out other companies inadequacies. Thank you again.

Have been many times to this theatre and always pleased with the show. Excellent seating and being a smaller theatre closer to stage and involvement. Panto's is always excellent
