CRT to Offer 'Early Bird' Tickets to BROADWAY ON THE LAKE Through 7/1

Cortland Repertory Theatre invites one and all to attend the one-night-only "Broadway on the Lake" fundraiser, hosted by the Board of Directors, to be held on Saturday, July 20 at the Little York Pavilion in Dwyer Memorial Park. Early Bird tickets are currently on sale for $35.00 through July 1, after which they will be raised to $40.00.

This fun, casual affair will begin at 6:00 p.m. with a cocktail buffet offering hearty appetizers, assorted seafood and carving stations, along with complimentary non-alcoholic beverages and a cash beer and wine bar. During the evening, two fund raising events will take place concurrently with prizes donated by Central New York businesses and individuals: a silent auction and a "Tricky Tray" raffle, in which attendees may purchase multiple tickets to place in the "hat" beside the raffle prizes. At the conclusion of bidding, one winning ticket is drawn for each item. There is no limit to how many tickets one may put in each "hat".

Following the auction, attendees will adjourn to the theatre and will enjoy a "one-night-only cabaret" featuring performances by cast members of "The Full Monty" and the upcoming "1940's Radio Hour".

Auction items include:

· A new 16 gb Apple iPad mini;

· A 68-piece Oneida Stockholm stainless steel flatware set, valued at $1,245;

· A beautiful floral painted pitcher donated by MacKenzie-Childs;

· A Syracuse basketball autographed by Jim Boeheim;

· A one-year membership to Willowbrook Golf Course, valued at $530;

· A "3-hour-tour" of Northern Cayuga Lake aboard the "Moxie";
