Support Us During Our Closure

Thank you for your continued support:

This is a worrying time for the arts industry and we are very grateful to be working in partnership with our touring promotors, hirers and participants who are all keen to reschedule their shows to continue providing you with the high quality standard of shows the theatre’s audience has grown to know and love.

We would like to thank our patrons for their support in donating their ticket price to Lichfield Garrick Theatre. Words cannot express the kindness you have shown us in our darkest days. We understand that this is an extremely difficult time for many, and this option is not possible for everyone. Any support that has been shown, be that a retweet on Twitter, some kind words on our Facebook wall or a donation to our Charity fund, is gratefully appreciated.

“Your local theatre loves to welcome audience members, participants, coffee drinkers, performers and guests, and yet we stand silent, in an increasingly quiet world. We wish you and your family good health and we know from your comments to our staff and online, that you wish us and our visiting performers well too. Thank you.

Yet the birds continue to sing and in the months ahead, we look forward to resuming our own song, dance, comedy and music routines. As Vera Lynn said ‘We’ll Meet Again’ and we look forward to it.”

Karen Foster, Lichfield Garrick Theatre Chief Executive.

How you will be helping

Should you wish to donate to our charity, you would be making a difference to the lives of many in our community. Below are a few ways that the charity supports the community with ticket sales income.

• Dementia Friendly cinema screenings
• Supported Internships for young adults with learning disabilities.
• Helping people of all ages who would not be able to attend the theatre by their own means to enjoy our productions and films.
• Making an accessible arts venue with relaxed, captioned and audio described performance and screenings.
• Bursaries for young performers.
• Building confidence and communication skills and combating social isolation and loneliness through arts.

Thank you for your continued support of the Lichfield Garrick theatre arts charity.

Any help you can offer is incredibly generous at a time when we are all facing uncertainty, and we can't thank you enough.
