Garrick Theatre
The Garrick Theatre, located on Charing Cross Road near Trafalgar Square, first welcomed audiences on 24 April 1889 with Pinero’s The Profligate—financed by W. S. Gilbert and designed by Walter Emden & C. J. Phipps on top of a buried underground river. Named after the renowned 18th‑century actor David Garrick, it quickly became a West End favorite for comedies and melodrama. With its elegant gold‑leaf auditorium, richly detailed plasterwork, chandeliers, and intimate stalls and dress circle seating (originally four levels, now a cozy 656‑seat venue), audiences are transported back to Victorian‑era London—though the interior was fully restored in 1989 and the façade refreshed in 1997.Under ownership of Nimax Theatres since 2005, the Garrick has consistently mounted high‑profile comedies and dramas—think No Sex Please, We’re British (4‑year run), The Last Five Years, Hamnet, and The Crown Jewels. The Garrick Theatre seating plan can help you find the best seats in the theatre.
