The Cortland Repertory Theatre (CRT) is proud to present the arrival of their annual Summer show for kids of all ages “The Emperor’s New Clothes.” Selecting a different production each year, 2023’s show will be brought to life July 13-15 in the first-floor reception hall at the Little York Pavilion in Preble, NY.
