About Cortland Repertory Theatre Downtown

Welcome to Cortland Repertory Theatre Downtown (CRT Downtown), located at 24 Port Watson Street in the heart of Cortland, NY. This two-venue company brings dynamic live theatre to both the CRT Downtown stage and the Little York Pavilion, offering a mix of musicals, plays, and special events each season. Whether you’re catching a summer musical at the Little York Pavilion or a concert and talkback at the Downtown venue, we’ve got you covered with practical details to help you plan your visit.

CRT Downtown operates with a flexible seating configuration depending on the production, with an approximate seating capacity of 250. The Little York Pavilion seats about 240 and features a different layout, with the Pavilion seating chart available through CRT pages. Parking is convenient at both venues: CRT Downtown offers a large nearby lot and additional space in the Cortland Youth Bureau lot across the street, while the Little York Pavilion has ample on-site parking. For public transit, Cortland Transit Route 2 serves SUNY Cortland and downtown Cortland, with passes available locally.

Nearby hotels and dining are easy to arrange through affiliate partners, making CRT Downtown a practical choice for quick getaways and comfortable stays. The two-venue model—Downtown and Little York Pavilion—remains in place since the CRT Downtown Box Office moved to 24 Port Watson Street in 2012, so you’ll find a consistent, helpful experience across visits.

Plan your visit with confidence: choose your preferred venue, check the seating configuration for the show, and secure your tickets with us. We’ll share practical details on parking, transit, and nearby affiliate hotels and restaurants to help you make the most of your Cortland theatre trip. If you’re looking for a family-friendly musical, summer evenings at the Little York Pavilion are a highlight, while downtown performances bring a range of concerts and talkbacks to the heart of Cortland.
