Lichfield Garrick Theatre Proudly Invites Public to View Newly Refurbished Spaces & Cafe Bar
Lichfield Garrick Theatre is delighted to invite the public into the venue to view the newly refurbished areas and facilities. Following the unveiling of exciting refurbishment plans in July 2024, the theatre has been in a period of refurbishment for several months, whilst operating a reduced programme for their audiences.
With refurbishment now complete, the theatre recently held a successful reopening event with community groups, sponsors, partners, trustees, stakeholders and membership holders in attendance. The closed event was an opportunity for supporters to explore the new spaces, meet the Garrick team and celebrate the theatre’s journey into this new chapter.
The refurbishment was made possible through the Garrick’s fantastic performance at the box office after the national lockdown and the primary focus was on enhancing the theatre’s front-of-house areas including box office, bars and toilets, and improving accessibility.
The theatre would like to thank the project team including architects Aaron Chetwynd, interior designers Designs Unlimited, access consultants Nimbus, project managers Virtus Consult and of course, experienced contractors Medlock FRB who delivered the project within a matter of weeks.
The theatre’s Cafe Bar (formerly the Green Room Cafe) offers a beautiful, colourful and warm new space for visitors to meet in, enjoy a drink and perhaps even a cake or two. The new Cafe Bar will be open to the public from Monday to Saturday every week, from 10am to 2pm and you can visit the theatre now to pick up your special offer voucher valid until 9th November 2024. The box office has also had a refresh, and now boasts a large service counter and foyer area to welcome audiences into.
Daniel Buckroyd, the venue’s Chief Executive & Artistic Director invites the public to come and see the improvements to the theatre and its accessibility stating, “We’re thrilled to have been able to undertake this major refurbishment of the Garrick – improving comfort and accessibility, adding extra bars and toilet facilities and opening up flexible new spaces for audiences and community activities – if you haven’t visited recently, we’d love you to come in, have a coffee, see a show and discover the warmest welcome in Lichfield.”
