In November 2015, Carole S said about Lichfield Garrick Theatre & Studio
This theatre is rented out to groups and organisations which wish to hire the venue. from local amdram and musical societies, to brass band, single artists and pantomime, there is something to suit everyone. Prices are reasonable (not the ice creams). The stalls has more space between the rows, seats are comfortable. There is a lift and two bars. there is only one entrance/exit. Accoustics are not brilliant, and the boards are noisy when a ballet company performs, but it is a good night out at a reasonable price.

The peace when we visited on the Saturday and the a wonderful Sung Eucgarist on the Sunday. There was a visiting Choir from the USA, also staying at the George Hotel which rounded off the whole visit as my wife is a choir leader.

The architecture, the long history, the nearby pools, the music, the staff -- all made for a wonderful atmosphere. I didn't want to leave.

The cathedral is in a wonderful setting on its hill above Lichfield and a good set of buildings around it. The West Front is an incredible Victorian re-imagining of what a Gothick Cathedral should be. The detail is great, with a plethora of Kings, Saints and Church Fathers. The proportions don't work for me though. The central gable is pinched between the rather squat towers. Inside, the length of the nave and chancel are really impressive.
There are a few medieval fragments dotted around, the Chapter House in particular, but what caught my eyes was the wealth of Victorian details which overlay everything with rich, detailed ornamentation. The Pulpit, Altar Rails and Reredos are all masterpieces in their own right.
If you like Victorian bling, you'll love Lichfield.
Nice City too - well worth a visit.

Loved the chapter house with St Chad's 8th century gospel, the 8th c Litchfield angel, and items from the Staffordshire hoard. The main organ was being tuned while we were there - noisy!

It is like walking into history. The cathedral is beautifully appointed and cared for. surrounded by the close it is both a venue for those who love history and those searching for a spiritual connection.
