Cortland Repertory Theatre Opens their 39th annual season at the Little York Pavilion with 'Spider's Web', a thrilling and intriguing play written by the Grand Dame of Mystery, Agatha Christie.

The cast for the Tricycle's Women, Power and Politics - a season exploring the history and current role of women in politics in Great Britain - will comprise Simon Chandler, Oliver Chris, Claire Cox, Heather Craney, Niamh Cusack, Stella Gonet, John Hollingworth, Amy Loughton, Tom Mannion, Kika Markham, Lara Rossi and Felix Scott.
