Description of Club
The Garrick Club is instituted for the general patronage

the formation of a theatrical library, with works on costume.
The Garrick Club is situated in the heart of London's West
End and Theatre-land, in Old Covent Garden. The nearest underground
station is Leicester Square and Covent Garden (Piccadilly/Northern
