Announcing CRT's
2023 Summer Season!

But First...

Big CRT News Just in Time for the Holidays!

ANNOUNCING THE NEW CRT GIFT CARD!

CRT now offers GIFT CARDS which may be purchased for any dollar amount - with NO EXPIRATION DATE!

The CRT Gift Card may be redeemed anytime in the future for the dollar amount (or any portion thereof) assigned to the card at time of purchase.

Patrons may also keep the card and add a dollar amount to it in the future, just as you would with a coffee shop or restaurant card.

Gift Cards may be ordered by calling 800-427-6160, dropping by CRT Downtown at 24 Port Watson St. in Cortland or online by clicking HERE.

Also...!

CRT is now HONORING ANY PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED UNREDEEMED GIFT CERTIFICATES from past years, regardless of the expiration date.

The following stipulations apply:

The actual gift certificate must be presented in order to be redeemed.

The gift certificate number must match our files as being unredeemed.

Gift certificates purchased as tickets, subscriptions or flex passes may be redeemed for the dollar amount at time of purchase. For example, a gift certificate purchased in 2018 as “two tickets” may be redeemed for the dollar amount of two tickets in 2018. Patrons may add the difference to that amount for the purchase of current tickets.

Please note that this policy will stand for PURCHASED gift certificates only. Any certificates donated by CRT to fund raisers, raffle baskets, or prizes will maintain the expiration date as stated on the certificate.

Take advantage of this new opportunity and give the gift that gets applause!

And now...Our 51st Summer Season!

Let’s try this again,
shall we?

CRT is thrilled to offer this exciting production to those who missed it last summer…and to those who want to see it again!

On a winter’s evening in 1934, a snowdrift stops the luxurious Orient Express, literally in its tracks. By morning, it is one passenger less; an American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed, his door locked from the inside. With a long list of suspects, detective Hercule Poirot must identify the murderer before they strike again! “Christie is not the bestselling novelist in history for nothing, and Ludwig’s adaptation strikes the perfect balance of the cerebral and the comic. Get on board – it’s a great ride!”

– Houstonian Magazine

A Pop Musical “Hilarity on Wheels”!

This Tony-Award-nominated, roller-skating musical adventure is based on the 1980 cult classic movie starring Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly! When the beautiful Greek muse, Kira, descends from the heavens of Mount Olympus to Venice Beach, California, she is on a quest to inspire struggling artist Sonny to achieve the greatest artistic creation of all time – the first roller disco! (Hey, it's 1980!) But, when Kira falls into forbidden love with the mortal Sonny, her jealous sisters take advantage of the situation, and hilarious chaos abounds. Those great radio pop hits you remember from the ‘80’s are all part of the fun, including Have You Never Been Mellow?, Evil Woman, Strange Magic, All Over the World, Don’t Walk Away and more! You'll want to keep Xanadu in your heart... forever!

A CRT “revival” of one of our
most popular comedies!

Two cops. Three crooks. Eight doors. Go!

In a cheap motel room, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his accountant, while in the room next door, two undercover cops wait to catch the meeting on videotape. But there’s some confusion as to who’s in which room, who’s being videotaped, who’s taken the money, who’s hired a Scottish hit man, and why the accountant keeps taking off her clothes. One of the funniest comedies ever written!

Regional Premiere!
Faith, family and frosting collide in this timely new play!

Della has a pretty good life. She’s been happily married to her husband, Tim, for years, her North Carolina bakery is legendary, and she’s just been cast on her favorite television show “The Big American Bake-Off”! She is overjoyed when her late best friend’s daughter, Jen, whom she helped raise, returns home from NYC to get married. There’s no question that Della will provide the wedding cake…until she discovers that there’s not one bride in this wedding, but two! Della must then re-examine her own deeply held beliefs and ultimately, her own marriage. “Brilliant…Powerful and meaningful…abundant wit and humor.” - LA Post-Examiner
