9) Koresh Dance Company presents
Koresh Dance Company’s Artistic Director, Roni Koresh will present his latest completed work that explores what drives an artist to create. Set to original scores by John Levis and Sage Deagro-Ruopp, Muse is inspired by those amazing individuals that possess the ability to inspire a creator to find aspects of themselves that would otherwise would go unexpressed. This evening-length is a love letter manifested in a physical, divine projection; a symbol of endless desire for the wholeness in the artist. The work magnifies the interdependence of this relationship, where both, muse and artist, are trapped in this frenetic dance that is as turbulent as it is exciting.

The Orchard (www.TheOrchardOffBroadway.com
The Orchard invites us into the fragile world of a family yearning for connection and struggling with the end of their world as they know it. Threatened with foreclosure and the loss of their beloved orchard, they face unstoppable, destructive forces that dismantle their lives like the breaking of a string.
The Orchard - Live & In-Person at the Baryshnikov Arts Center
The Orchard is an intimate, fully staged live performance of The Cherry Orchard as translated by Carol Rocamora and adapted by Golyak. An international team of collaborators, spanning theater, gaming, film, robotics, and emerging technologies, was assembled to create the world of The Orchard. Audiences in the theater will enter an immersive, dreamlike environment where perceptions, illusions, and reality collide as a family in crisis tries to process their uncertain future.
The Orchard - Virtual Experience Online
The virtual experience online invites audiences on a journey through a beautifully rendered, three dimensional virtual property that has been abandoned and is in foreclosure. There, audiences can explore and discover magical rooms where they uncover echoes of a past life, now lost, including Chekhov's letters, memories, and ultimately the play, live, in progress at the Baryshnikov Arts Center.
The in-person and online versions will run concurrently - live - for each performance. Partway through the performances, the two versions intersect and the worlds come together.
The performance schedule is: Tuesday – Thursday at 7PM, Friday – Saturday at 8PM, with matinees on Saturday and Sunday at 2PM. There will also be an additional 2PM matinee on June 15. The Orchard will play a limited engagement through Sunday, July 3, 2022. All attendees will be required to show ID and proof of COVID vaccination.
