SUMMARY:Performance:The Brother Brothers
DESCRIPTION:“wonderful ... fabulous old-time playing and sibling harmony.” –NPR\n\nThe Brother Brothers are the indie folk duo of Adam and David Moss. The identical twins were born and raised in Peoria\, Illinois and originally based in Brooklyn\, but have been ultimately and profoundly shaped by a life surrounded by travel and the web of community worldwide. They are the kind of people who have a story about everything\, and moreso\, one you might genuinely like to hear. \n\nAmerican Songwriter once said\, “no matter what musical context Adam and David Moss may come to put themselves in\, what the duo want to say through music will always come to show the beauty that exists—even in the deepest cracks—of human living.” Proclaims No Depression\, “the warm harmonies and silky melodies of identical twins David and Adam Moss evoke the kind of ’60s-era folk tunes that reverberated through dark\, wood-paneled bars in the Village… If these brothers aren’t among the Americana Music Association’s nominees for Emerging Artist or Duo-Group\, I want a recount.”\n\nThe Brother Brothers come to The Ark with a new album\, “The January Album.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4636/4637 for more detail.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Cherry Orchard
DESCRIPTION:Anton Chekhov’s *The Cherry Orchard* is considered one of the great classic works of Russian theatre\, having been translated into countless languages and produced all over the world. Some of the greatest American playwrights – such as Arthur Miller\, David Mamet\, and Eugene O’Neill – were directly influenced by Chekhov.\n\nAfter a prolonged absence following the death of her son\, noblewoman Lyobov Ranevskaya returns to her estate  and finds the cherry orchard on the estate in full bloom. Despite this outward sign of prosperity\, her home is on the verge of financial ruin. Along with her brother\, Gaev\, Lyobov struggles to maintain the façade of gentility as their world crumbles around them.\n\nWritten by Anton Chekhov\nTranslated by Paul Schmidt\nDirected by Daniel Cantor\n\nFUN FACTS: Is *The Cherry Orchard* a comedy or a tragedy? It depends on who you ask. According to artlark.org\, “The original intention of Chekhov was for *The Cherry Orchard* to be a comedy\; yet\, [Constantin] Stanislavsky [famous actor/director and creator of the eponymous Stanislavsky method\, known as ‘method acting’] turned it into a tragedy.” Russian literature scholar Svetlana Evdokimova quotes Stanislavsky as saying\, “‘This is not a comedy\, not a farce\, as you wrote\; it is a tragedy\, whatever outlet for a better life you may have offered in the last act… I hear you saying: “Wait a minute\, but this is a farce…” No\, for an ordinary person this is a tragedy.’” Yet this conflict is what makes *The Cherry Orchard* such good theatre. As Evdokimova says\, “Clearly\, the source of the comic lies not in the play’s fabula or situation\, not in what happens\, but in how it happens and to whom it happens. The enigmatic\, captivating\, and almost mesmerising effect that *The Cherry Orchard* continues to exert on its audience is to be found in its good-humoured but foolish protagonists – both charming in their gullibility and pathetic in their utter confusion.”
