Manipulo transforms the stage into a living Japanese garden. Instead of raked sand and still stones, audiences find tables, dancers, and loose stones waiting to be placed. As audience members move the stones — arranging them, testing their weight, deciding where they belong — the dancers respond in kind, and the sound of stone meeting table is captured by contact microphones and turned into live music. The pace, the shape of the space, and the relationships between performers all shift depending on what the audience chooses to do. No two performances unfold the same way twice. Manipulo is created by TALVEZ, a contemporary dance company based in Quito, Ecuador, under the direction of Marcela Correa. This fall, TALVEZ tours to Somerville to restage the piece with local dancers and musicians, culminating in two performances at SomArt @ the Hive. Buy Tickets Leading up to the performances

ANOTHER TEQUILA SUNRISE is America’s premier Tribute to the Eagles. Since 2001, this New England based tribute band has been delighting sell-out crowds across the country with the Eagles full catalog of music. Great live sets of music that encompass the classics and the deep cuts. From the Eagles’ studio collection to&nbsp;a variety of presentation options that includes complete album sets, to solo material from Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and the late Glenn Frey, as well as the acoustic sets, featuring Eagles' classics, many performed as they were originally written.&nbsp; A.T.S. does this with an unparalleled commitment to the music.&nbsp; Another Tequila Sunrise has gone beyond the realm of understanding “how” the music was made.&nbsp;&nbsp; Their ability to recreate iconic studio sounds does not go unnoticed; but what really sets them apart is their ability to recreate the Eagles’ LIVE&nbsp;CONCERT experience. To do that, musicians must understand not only “how” the music was made, but also “why”. Why does Henley alter his drumming pattern ever-so-slightly? Why does Felder choose this particular lick or passage over another? Uncovering these notions is crucial to peeling back the layers of the Eagles' timeless songs and the key to improvising like an Eagle, with the secret to delivering a painstakingly authentic Eagles LIVE experience…..and this all-star lineup has it in spades.
