The Garrick Theatre London
The Garrick Theatre London West End
The Garrick Theatre was designed by Walter Emden, and C J Phipps as a consultant to help with the planning on this site which included an underground river.

The theatre was built for W S Gilbert, who was responsible for the book and lyrics of all Savoy Operas with Sir Arthur Sullivan. The theatre opened on 24th April, 1889 and was named after David Garrick, an 18th Century actor. The theatre has retained its Victorian aspects. Sir John Hare produced and starred in The Profligate with Johnston Forbes Robertson and Lewis Waller in 1889.

When first built the theatre had 800 seats on four levels, but since then the gallery has been closed and the seating capacity reduced to 656. The gold leaf auditorium was restored in 1986 by the designer Carl Toms and in 1997 the front facade also had a facelift. The theatre has largely been associated with comedies or comedy-dramas.

Recent productions include a No Sex Please We’re British, which then transferred to the Duchess Theatre in August 1986. On 24th October 1995 the Royal National Theatre’s multi-award winning production of J B Priestley’s An Inspector Calls opened here, having played successful seasons at the RNT’s Lyttelton and Olivier theatres as well as the Aldwych Theatre and a season on Broadway.

Bonnie and Clyde at the Garrick Theatre, London

The story of Bonnie Parker (1910-1934) (Frances Mayli McCann) and Clyde Barrow (1909-1934) (Jordan Luke Gage) could, in some respects, be a narrative for our times: the police is underfunded and people are struggling to get by on their current earnings. Parker, like so many these days, dreams of stardom, and her signing autographs when a robbery of a bank with no money in the safe is in progress (as this show would have it) is something I could imagine those who crave notoriety one way or … [Read more...]

Brainiac Live! at the Garrick Theatre | Review

August 3, 2019 Last updated: October 8, 2019 1:30 am By Mary Beer

Brainiac Live. Credit Anna Kucera

The original Sky One TV series, Brainiac: Science Abuse, hung up its lab coat for the last time some 11 years ago so not only did my seven-year-old twins have absolutely zero familiarity with the franchise but I also entered the Garrick Theatre with a healthy dose of telly-brand-extension scepticism. Fast-forward to an hour later and their grins of delight seem to have become permanent and I’m now the proud mother of two super-fans! This show is short, sharp and absolutely exhilarating for … [Read more...]
