Garrick Theatre, Grade II* listed theatre in Westminster, United Kingdom.

The Garrick Theatre features an intimate auditorium with gold-leaf decorations and four levels of seating, accommodating 732 spectators in central London.

Architect Walter Emden designed this Victorian-era theatre in 1889, requiring special engineering solutions due to an underground river discovered during construction.

The theatre maintains a tradition of presenting diverse productions, from classical plays to contemporary musicals, contributing to London's performing arts landscape.

Located on Charing Cross Road, the venue provides accessibility services and online booking options through its official website for all performances.

The building received financial support from W.S. Gilbert, creator of Gilbert and Sullivan operas, who chose John Hare as its first manager.
