Return to Productions Archive Garrick Production George's Marvellous Medicine Phizz-whizzing Easter half term fun for all the Family! Ran Apr 7, 2022 - Apr 24, 2022 Age guidance 5+ Venue Running time Tickets Price Range Description By Roald Dahl Adapted by David Wood It’s the half term holiday and George Kranky is looking forward to a break from school when a letter from Grandma arrives announcing that she is coming to stay – that very day! Soon she is making George’s life miserable with spiteful comments and demands for doses of medicine! But one day, when his parents leave him alone with the grizzly old grunion, George takes his chance and sets about creating a brand new medicine to cure her of her cruelty. Little does he know that his perilous potion will be the start of a rather marvellous adventure… This will be Easter Half Term Mayhem at the Altrincham Garrick Playhouse! This imaginative and entertaining stage adaptation of Roald Dahl’s much loved children’s book is bursting with growing grannies, feathery farm animals and bags of frothbuggling family fun. Recommended 5+ Reviews FANTASTIC REVIEW - RICK BOWEN AT STAGESTRUCK WHILE I’m not one of those irritating people who witter on about ‘the good old days’, it was really refreshing to see children completely immersed in a form of entertainment that wasn’t screen based. And big kids like me enjoyed it, too. I been reviewing theatre for 30 years and this was the first time I’d ever seen - well, I’m not going to spoil the surprise for you. This production is also a triumph for the director/designer Sean Duvall for he has designed a set that smacks of fairytale charm and a talented team of puppeteers who successfully transport the audience to a world in which anything is possible. Poor George - played by an engaging Andy Withers - has his school holiday ruined when his grouchy old grandma comes to stay at his family’s farm. She really is a grump, snarling her orders at George and his oh so patient parents,played by Michael Gallagher and Christine Perry. Withers is an engaging and likeable George and instantly won over the youngsters in the audience as he hatches a plan to put the old battle axe well and truly in her place. The panto season may be eight months away but this show has that well known staple ingredient of the panto. Audience participation. But take comfort folks - the jokes are an awful lot better. Hannah Collman, far, far, far younger than the role she is playing, is really good value as Grandma, perfectly capturing her mannerisms and with a voice that could, quite easily, curdle milk. The world may be a bad place at the moment so what better than 90 minutes of good, clean fun to whisk us away from these unprecedented times? Until April 24.

Ran Dec 9, 2022 - Jan 2, 2023 Age guidance Venue Running time Tickets Price Range Description OUR FESTIVE SHOW FOR 2022/23 IS OUR PANTOMIME VERSION OF ‘DICK WHITTINGTON’ The Garrick Pantomime Paved With Gold! BOOKING NOW! Dick Whittington’s heading to that there London to seek his fame and fortune – he’s heard the streets are paved with gold! With his trusty cat by his side, he gets a job at Alderman Fitzwarren’s Store but the city is under attack from the most villainous vermin of them all; King Rat! With the help of his new love Alice, Fairy Bow Bells, Sarah the Cook and her silly son Idle Jack, will Dick be able to vanquish the vermin? Oh Yes he will! For this is a Garrick Pantomime after all! Book now for this purrfect Christmas treat – it’ll be a Whitting-tonne of fun! Reviews Rick Bowen at Stagestruck ALL good pantos live or die by their leads and in Conor Collins, who plays King Rat, the Garrick has an actor born to be a baddie. When I saw this. on its freezing cold opening night, Collins managed to provoke the audience into booing and hissing him with little effort on his part every time he walked onstage. Even big kids like me couldn’t resist the temptation to join in, even though us critics are meant to be a snooty, buttoned up bunch. At the other end of the spectrum there are the goodies. Ethan Beer as Dick and Hannah Dorothy as the evening’s love interest, Alice Fitzwarren. Unless you’ve had a sense of humour bypass you’ll find it impossible not to warm to Phil Edwards as Sarah the Cook and there’s a kooky bond between this panto natural and Daniel Ellis who plays his son, Idle Jack. I also really also enjoyed Bev Stuart Cole’s Fairy Bow Bells as the action careers towards it climax. It’s hard to believe Cole has been member at this theatre for more than 30 years, so fresh and invigorating is her performance. Tom Whalley’s script is a mixture of daft dad jokes and a healthy smattering of saucier lines which are aimed obviously at the adults and are sure to go over the heads of the kids. Pantos are a great way to introduce children to the theatre and there was dancing in the aisle during the musical numbers in the second half, courtesy of a group of tots who’d made it their mission to have a good time. Also, how good it was to escape from the pressures of modern life and enjoy an evening of unbridled fun. Until January 2.

But this nautical adventure is a trip well worth making as it takes place on dry land, perfect for a land lubber like me. Also it was really pleasing to see so many children in the audience as I imagine far too many kids think live theatre begins and ends with pantomime. I know I did. This rollicking good adventure sees Jim Hawkins -Lauren Brown - and the legendary baddie Long John Silver Michael Gallagher - -on the hunt for buried treasure in a far flung destination that can destroy the sanity of those brave enough to set foot there. Brown and Gallagher are a terrifically engaging double act even if there are occasions when Gallagher is at serious risk of being upstaged by a parrot. There are also some great sword fights to enjoy and all the action takes place against a very believable backdrop designed by James Merrington. I particularly enjoyed the inn at the start of the evening, complete with flickering fire effect in the grate. Set designers haven’t received the recognition they often deserve in my previous reviews. Hopefully this will serve to redress the balance somewhat. Helen Horridge is extremely watchable and likeable as Squire and the appreciative applause Euan Tanna-Fenton received during the performance was richly deserved as he was so convincing as a sailor who’d lost his mind, having lived alone on the island for three long and lonely years. Joe Meighan’s appointment as the Garrick’s artistic director has proved to be a real masterstroke and he proves yet again that the words ‘family show’ don’t have to be shorthand for stupidity. To enter into the spirit of the evening the theatre’s front of house staff dressed in sailor garb. Well done, me hearties. Until April 14.

Return to Productions Archive Garrick Productions Jeffrey Bernard is Unwell Ran Nov 6, 2000 - Nov 11, 2000 Age guidance Venue Running time Tickets Price Range Description Gambler, journalist, fervent alcoholic and four-times married Jeffrey Bernard wrote the "Low Life" column for the Spectator magazine chronicling Soho life as well as offering a very personal philosophy on vodka, women and race-courses. From this, Keith Waterhouse has brilliantly constructed a play (the title being the euphemism used by the Spectator when Bernard was incapable of writing his column) which is set in the saloon bar of Bernard's favourite Soho pub, the Coach and Horses . Having passed out in the lavatory, Bernard awakes in the early hours of the morning to find himself alone and in the dark. Unable to contact the landlord he is resigned to spending the rest of the night with a bottle of vodka and an endless chain of cigarettes narrating a story of hilarious anecdotes and witty reminiscences which are enacted by two actors and two actresses who bring to life the various characters who populate Jeff's world. The play enjoyed a hugely successful run at the Apollo Theatre, London and had a similarly successful revival with the original Jeffrey, Peter O'Toole, at the Old Vic for a strictly limited run in 1999 Winner of the 1990 Evening Standard Theatre Award for 'Best Comedy'.

Return to Productions Archive Garrick Production Jumpers for Goalposts A hilarious and heart-warming comedy Ran May 9, 2022 - May 14, 2022 Age guidance Venue Running time Tickets Price Range Description A hilarious and heart-warming comedy about football, friendship and finding your way. “Barely Athletic” are part of a four-team five-a-side LGBTQ+ football league which Viv, their bullish head coach, is desperate to win. Or if they can’t win, at least they should try not to lose. Chucked out of the “Lesbian Rovers” for being too bossy, she desperately tries to instil some competitive spirit into the boys. Problem is, Beardy Geoff is copping off with the opposition, Danny is nursing a painful secret, Luke only joined because he fancies Danny, and Viv’s brother-in-law Joe is trying to cope with his grief after losing his wife. Together, they might just be able to claw back up from the bottom of the league… Tom Wells’ drama bears the hallmarks of his warm comedic style, which were displayed in his previous hit play “The Kitchen Sink”, and is a paean to the virtues of friendship and love. Jumpers for Goalposts premiered at Watford Palace Theatre in 2013, before touring the UK, including a run at the Bush Theatre, London. Warning: Strong language Altrincham Garrick Playhouse is proud to support the George House Trust. Since 1985, George House Trust has been inspiring people living with HIV to live healthy, confident lives by providing HIV support, advice and advocacy services. For more information email: talk@ght.org.uk Reviews Review by Rick Bowen at Stagestruck Jumpers For Goalposts will, on the evidence of Monday night’s performance, attract a different, younger audience. For far too many years Altrincham Garrick has been seen as a safe night out for older people and the appointment of artistic director Joseph Meighan, a dynamic and adventurous twenty something, is about to change that misguided perception. A quiet revolution is taking place on Barrington Road and it feels so exciting and exhilarating to be part of it. But this theatre is working hard to get the message across that the Garrick is a theatre for everybody. All power to their elbow, say I. Jumpers for Goalposts follow the misfortunes of Barely Athletic, a five-a-side team largely made up of gay men who struggle with the basics of the beautiful game. This doesn’t stop Viv, their straight talking coach with a very short fuse, encouraging her clueless charges to try to win the league in which they play. It’s certainly a league with a difference – one team plays in drag! The play takes place in the club’s dressing room, an ideal backdrop for writer Tom Wells to delve into the private lives of the players, including a burgeoning relationship between Danny and Luke. Danny carries a secret that he feels unable to share with the child like Luke, a lovable geek and a study in social awkwardness. Joe Meighan, who directs this engaging, absorbing and heart-warming comedy must have thought all his birthdays had come at once when Dan Ellis and Mason Lockwood turned up to audition for these roles. If anyone was ever born to play these parts it’s these two actors and Lockwood, who gets the funniest lines as Luke, displays a sense of comic timing that is simply second to none. Beverley Stuart-Cole is highly believable as Viv, Sebastian Farrell is also enjoyable as the team’s token straight man Joe, aka the keeper who couldn’t catch a cold and Lewis Sewell is perfect as the crackpot Beardy Geoff. Throughout the production the cast convinces the audience they’re watching a real football team, complete with the personality clashes you find in all organisations, sporting or otherwise. They say football is a game of two halves and that old adage can certainly be applied to Jumpers for Goalposts, with the best one liners saved for the second half. While this play contains some strong language it’s in context and gives the play a realistic feel. It’s sure to strike a chord with anyone whose set foot inside a sports club’s dressing room while not alienating those who haven’t. Great fun, with a dash of poignancy thrown in. Until May 14.

Return to Productions Archive Garrick Production RELAXED PERFORMANCE of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time RELAXED PERFORMANCE - A touching and bleakly humorous tale, performed by The Garrick Ensemble Ran Feb 9, 2025 Age guidance 12+ Venue Main House Running time TBC Tickets Price Range £10.50 - £12.50 Description Christopher, fifteen years old, stands beside Mrs Shears’ dead dog. It has been speared with a garden fork, it is seven minutes after midnight, and Christopher is under suspicion. He records each fact in the book he is writing to solve the mystery of who murdered Wellington. He has an extraordinary brain and is exceptional at maths, but he is ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured alone beyond the end of his road, he detests being touched, and he distrusts strangers. But Christopher’s detective work, forbidden by his father, takes him on a frightening journey that turns his world upside-down. Simon Stephens’ adaptation of Mark Haddon’s bestselling, award-winning novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time offers a richly theatrical exploration of this touching and bleakly humorous tale. Age: 12 + Warning: This production contains themes and depictions that may be distressing to some audience members, including descriptions of physical and emotional abuse, discussions of mental health and disability, and strong language.

If you are a parent, guardian, or work with people with learning or sensory disabilities – such as those on the autism spectrum – you’ll know how difficult it can sometimes be for them to attend regular theatre performances; loud noises, lighting effects and large crowds can make stage shows overwhelming. At Altrincham Garrick Playhouse, we believe that everyone should be able to experience the magic and wonder of live theatre, and so we are proud to be producing a Relaxed Performance for THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME which will deliver the same theatrical experience but with an atmosphere and attitude in the auditorium that makes everyone feel comfortable and safe. Relaxed Performances are open to anyone who would benefit from a more relaxed performance environment. This may include children, young people and adults with neurodivergence such as autism, learning disabilities and other sensory or communication needs. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM OUR RELAXED PERFORMANCE: A number of adaptations will be made to the show to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable environment for everyone. These include: - Come and go from the auditorium as you wish, even during the show. - Express yourself as loudly as you like, or with physical movement, without judgement. - Access the Theatre and auditorium early. - Extra Staff on hand to support audiences during their time with us. - A quiet breakout space available before, during and after the performance. - Changes to the production’s lighting and sound including reducing the sound levels and removing any lighting that could be overpowering to lessen sensory overload. There’ll be no loud bangs during the performance. - Auditorium lighting will remain on throughout the performance. - Elements of surprise will be reduced. Altrincham Garrick Playhouse are proud to be supporting I AM with this production. At I AM , we’re dedicated to supporting autistic individuals to thrive, connect, and achieve their full potential. Based in the heart of Manchester, we provide tailored programmes, inclusive activities, and vital resources that empower autistic children, young people, and adults, as well as their families. Together, we’re building a more understanding and inclusive community - because every voice matters.

Return to Productions Archive Garrick Production One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest Performed by The Garrick Ensemble / PLEASE NOTE: 50% reduced capacity and socially distanced seating on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings Ran Feb 7, 2022 - Feb 12, 2022 Age guidance Venue Running time Tickets Price Range Description By Dale Wasserman From the Novel by Ken Kesey Directed by Joseph Meighan Please Note – Reduced capacity and socially distanced seating for our Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evening performances of this production. Boisterous, ribald and ultimately shattering, One Flew Over the Cuckoo‘s Nest is the unforgettable story of a mental hospital and its inhabitants. When a brash new inmate arrives, the rigid program of the ward, headed by the tyrannical Nurse Ratched, is thrown up for grabs. In a world where sanity means conformity and following the rules is the only way to survive, One Flew Over the Cuckoo‘s Nest is a powerful exploration of both the beauty and the danger of being an original. Volatile and dark, humorous, thought-provoking and with strong language, this play (based on the classic 1962 novel by Ken Kesey and the 1972 film starring Jack Nicholson, which won five major Academy awards) is a true cult classic and will be an unforgettable evening at Altrincham Garrick Playhouse, performed by The Garrick Ensemble. WARNING – this production contains strong language and adult themes. The Garrick Ensemble is a company of 18 – 30 year old aspiring actors from Greater Manchester and Cheshire who perform one production each year as part of the Altrincham Garrick Playhouse Main House Season. The production will be directed by Artistic Director Joseph Meighan. The Garrick Ensemble aims to make theatre that is fresh, innovative and exciting. See the very best of local, up and coming talent before they move forward in the next stages of their careers in the Arts. Reviews Rick Bowen - Stagestruck WHEN the criminal Randle Patrick McMurphy is admitted to a cheerless psychiatric hospital, he doesn’t simply rock the boat. He capsizes it. This American classic, from the pen of Ken Kesey, has lost none of its power to shock, move or captivate in a stage adaptation that certainly succeeds in capturing the spirit of the original, rather wonderful novel. McMurphy, in a bid to avoid a jail sentence, pleads insanity and ends up in a grim institution presided over by one of contemporary literature’s most horrendous baddies, the notorious Nurse Ratched. She hides behind a veneer of care and compassion. In reality of course, she has no concept of either is particularly cruel to the stammering Billy, knowing exactly which buttons to press when it comes to making him feel guilty when this sad and sympathetic character has a glimpse of normality courtesy of the rebellious new arrival McMurphy. In him she finds a formidable adversary, as he reminds his fellow patients what it feels like to live again, organising a number of events that fly in the face of the hospital’s draconian rules. For those of you who are new to this tale I won’t be a party pooper. Let me just say Mc Murphy’s antics lead to a number of unforgettable scenes on the Garrick stage. Director Joe Meighan must have thought all his birthdays had come at once when Joseph Morgan auditioned for the role of Randle P McMurphy. Morgan brings a freshness and an individuality to the part immortalised on the big screen by the legendary Jack Nicholson. Matthew Spilsbury is simply outstanding as the towering Chief Bromden, offering us a heart breaking reminder of the appalling treatment meted out to the native Americans in ‘the land of the free.’ Returning to Ratched, I really admire Madeleine Healey for the way she resisted the temptation to take the pantomime villainess route when playing the role and I challenge anyone not to be moved by the scene with Billy – an excellent Charlie Gallagher – in which she crushes him by re-visiting the character’s innate sense of guilt. One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest is yet another triumph for this theatre’s dynamic and exciting young actors group, the Garrick Ensemble. This a production not to be missed. Boy, how I wish I could write like Ken Kesey. Flawless – in every respect.

Return to Productions Archive Lauriston Studio Bombshells Ran Sep 26, 2023 - Oct 1, 2023 Age guidance Venue Altrincham Garrick Studio Running time Tickets Price Range Description Six women on the edge - of greatness, of love, and their sanity. These monologues showcase six women balancing their inner and outer lives with humour, poignancy and depth. Meet Meryl who fears she is the world's worst mother; Tiggy who has taken refuge in her local cacti- appreciation society; Mary who refuses to be upstaged by her arch-nemesis; Theresa who couldn't be more excited to be in her wedding dress; Winsome who has grown tired of being 'one of the widows'; and, finally, Zoe who wants you to know that despite what you've heard, she's back and better than ever! Delve into each character's life as they bare their most urgent wishes and thoughts - at times hilarious and, at others, heart breaking. Bombshells tells riveting personal stories that everyone can find themselves in, for better or worse... Reviews Number 9 Reviews Following on from last Season’s successful all-LBGTQ+ productions, Altrincham Garrick Studio opens this year’s Season of all female themed plays with 'Bombshells' by Joanna Murray-Smith. Originally written as a one woman show, the play features six monologues; a schoolgirl, a bride, a hassled young mother, a widow, a suburban divorcee, and a has-been cabaret singer. Six stories, six ages of woman, six insights, six emotional states. I love a monologues structure. It allows the actor an intimacy of connection that isn’t usually experienced in a traditional play and for the audience it can be electric. If the quality of the writing and the quality of the performance are strong, Bingo! You have yourself a hit. Joanna Murray-Smith has, in these six monologues, create a very entertaining, humorous and contrasting work. Each woman has her own insight, her own experience, her own denial, her own victories and failures, her own fears and joys. First we meet Meryl (Eilidh Pollard) mother of three very young children. We wake with her at 6.07am when her crying baby starts the day and we stay with her for 24 hours until 6.07am the next morning when the whole routine (or lack of) starts again. She is hassled, harassed, tired and emotional. She is overwhelmed with love for her beautiful children and the endless repetition of the tasks of the day. She craves approval, acceptance, reassurance that she is a good mum, and coffee. She is filled with self-doubt and chastises herself as a selfish woman for ever considering her own needs; for ever being anything other than a slave to mother and wifehood. Pollard portrays well a loving woman who is under pressure. Her interactions with her children are well expressed and she uses her voice effectively and understands the rhythm and psyche of the character. I would have liked to have seen a more realistic handling of her ever present, milk demanding baby with a more realistic and believable baby prop. I think it would have allowed more moments of change of pace for her by utilising her breastfeeding regime and given contrast to the frantic pace of her day. Next we meet Tiggy. (Lindsay Barker) Shy, sad Tiggy. Poor lonely Tiggy. Abandoned, angry Tiggy. Her husband Harry has left her for a much younger woman and in response she has embraced the world of cacti and succulents by joining a local appreciation society. She gives talks about them in local community centres. She comes alive when speaking on this her specialist subject. Barker conveys a gentle, shy woman who is kind and thoughtful, sweet and gentle, but much like a cactus if you catch it the wrong way, a sharp, stabbing painful moment can occur at any time. There is a vulnerability about her that Barker portrays effectively. Young Mary O’Donnell (Ciara-Alexandra Booker) is the MOST talented girl in her school. She can sing and dance like no other and is hotly tipped to win the prestigious St Bridget’s Annual Talent Contest as she did last year, and the year before. When her nemesis Angela McTerry unexpectedly performs the very song and dance routine that Mary has been preparing, she has minutes to decide what to do as an alternative performance. It’s not a problem. She is talented, almost a professional, she will cope. If Meryl Streep can, she can. What unfolds is hilarious, well judged and sweetly psychopathic. Booker excels in this performance. Just like Les Dawson’s piano playing – you have to be pretty good to be able to do it that badly and Booker was THAT good. Theresa McTerry (Kim Armston) is The Bride. Today is the happiest day of her life. We see her prepare excitedly for her wedding telling us of how she has planned this moment since being a young girl. As she dresses herself for this, the most important day of her life, we share her excitement and anticipation. But as the moment comes and she steps into the ceremony her doubts and fears begin to emerge with great comedy. Turns out she hasn’t really thought much beyond the dress and Amston portrays this role with great humour and nicely timed focus. As the ceremony moves to the reception her state of mind declines and her desperation to escape her reality hits home. It really WAS all about the dress and her journey from giddy girl to desperate woman is laid bare. It is a nicely jugged and well paced performance Winsome (Sarat Broughton) is a widow. Her widowhood defines her as she copes with life following the death of her husband. She surrounds herself with the company of other widows and falls into a fixed routine of activity that seems to function as an anaesthetic to her pain and loss. When volunteering for a local Blind Society, reading books to it’s members, she meets Patrick, a much younger man. Gradually he seduces her and an awakening occurs that is both unexpected and beautiful. It takes some skill to perform a seduction alone on a stage and I must applaud Broughton for her portrayal. Her movement, vocal expression and nuanced performance was for me, impressive. Zoe Struthers (Annabel Fox) is a Diva. An ageing, alcoholic diva who is past her best. We witness her swansong, a final performance for her adoring fans. She is demanding, self pitying, deluded and drunk. She laps up the adoration and manipulates it to suit her many needs. A monologue which is styled with audience banter inserted between songs this could have been a final showstopper. For me, Fox did not quite deliver. Her tragic performance needed to be much bigger, bolder, drunker and more Diva-esque. Basically, more Liza Minelli. In conclusion, I did enjoy this show. The intimacy of this lovely studio worked very well for this piece of theatre and there was a lovely connection with an appreciative audience. Between the monologues, actors repositioned the stage for the next performer and for me this did not work and lacked directorial imagination. Connections could have been made using these moments and I felt clear opportunities were lost. This was a shame as there was some real talent amongst a generally good cast. The piece was entertaining and enjoyable. It was good. It could have been great.

Return to Productions Archive Garrick Productions Tom Jones Ran Jun 9, 1999 - Jun 19, 1999 Age guidance Venue Running time Tickets Price Range Description Dunham Massey Hall - June 9 -19th 1999 A huge cast gave eight performances of Joan Macalpine's adaptation of Henry Fielding's bawdy romp of a novel, "Tom Jones" Although the evening may have seemed a little long (maybe the seating was not quite as comfortable as it might have been!), the original novel runs to over 800 pages in a modern printed edition, so a finish time of 10.15 pm was quite an achievement! Reviews SAM's view on "Tom Jones" Alas smitten Jones - Womaniser Tom keeps crowd warm It may have been a slightly chilly evening in the stands in the courtyard of Dunham Massey Hall, but the goings on in Tom Jones, performed by the Altrincham Garrick, were, to say the least, hot. Tom is a philandering womaniser of the first order but he has a directness and a candour which endear him to the audience and, ultimately, to his true love, Sophia Western. Charlie Tomlinson throws himself into the part of Fielding's hero with an abandonment only equalled by that of his lovers. He frolics tirelessly with his dalliances, has dust ups with the men and performs acrobatic impossibilities when he dives under a neatly constructed bed and hangs from a drainpipe - a performance which will be recalled and savoured! Sophia, played by Juliet Glaves, is a decorous, becoming and well bred young lady who becomes excessively tearful when her father foists the wrong man on her. Tom's first fling is with Pam Nolan's voluptuous Molly, who has a sexy Somerset drawl. "I never done that before," she sighs innocently while wantonly seducing him and indulging in rough and tumble behind the strategically placed hay cart. His last encounter gives Helen Busby a chance to shine. She positively sparkles as the scheming Mrs Fitzpatrick who guilefully illustrates that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. In between comes Angela Wetherill who, as Mrs Waters, is a mistress of farce. Hers is the funniest scene. It's not unlike a silent movie. Special attention has been given to the costumes, from the Royal Exchange, high powered lighting and first rate sound.
