The Cherry Orchard
The Cherry Orchard is the last play by Russian playwright Anton Chekhov. It opened at the Moscow Art Theatre on 17 January 1904 in a production directed by Constantin Stanislavski. Although Chekhov intended it as a comedy, and it does contain some elements of farce, Stanislavski insisted on directing the play as a tragedy. Since this initial production, directors have had to contend with the dual nature of the play. The play is often identified on the short list of the three or four outstanding plays written by Chekhov along with The Seagull, Three Sisters, and Uncle Vanya.
The play concerns an aristocratic Russian woman and her family as they return to their family estate just before it is auctioned to pay the mortgage. While presented with options to save the estate, the family essentially does nothing and the play ends with the sale of the estate to the son of a former serf; the family leaves to the sound of the cherry orchard being cut down. The story presents themes of cultural futility – both the futile attempts of the aristocracy to maintain its status and of the bourgeoisie to find meaning in its newfound materialism. In reflecting the socio-economic forces at work in Russia at the turn of the 20th century, including the rise of the middle class after the abolition of serfdom in the mid-19th century and the sinking of the aristocracy, the play reflects forces at work around the globe in that period.

Renaissance (1) Titus Groan
Kelsey Sharp Renaissance is PROG ROCK played on medieval instruments.
CONCEPT
Titus Groan was a novel by Mervyn Peake published in 1946. In the novel, Titus was the 77th Earl of Groan and Lord of Gormenghast Castle. Young Titus dreaded the preordained life of ritual that stretched before him. In this song he dreamed of one day escaping the castle.
LYRICS
I want to leave this meaningless tradition.
I want to form a legend all my own
and run away from this prison of ancient rock and stone.
I want to leave these endless days of ritual.
The wilderness calls to me in my dreams
to run away from this prison of ancient rock and stone.
And when I leave I will take nothing with me but my shadow.
He’s been my only true companion on this road.
And where I go I will proclaim that I once ruled a kingdom
far off in distant lands of which no one has heard.
Far away in a corner of the world, set me free.
On my own exploring new lands
defying fate and finding new friends.
Free to live at last, not beholden to my past.
Owning nothing. Ruling no one.
The ghosts of my regret can haunt this castle while I’m gone,
but I’ll be moving on.
Fly away!
Abdicate this throne.
The dream of Titus Groan.
LIVE PERFORMANCE
This song was arranged for 6 musicians; 1) Violin, 2) Mandolin, 3) Octave Mandolin, 4) Marimbula, 5) Congas & Djembe, 6) Tambourine.
Marimbula is a plucked box musical instrument of the Caribbean that sounds like an upright bass.

SUMMARY
=======
The London Underground (also known simply as the Underground, or by its nickname the Tube) is a public rapid transit system serving London, England and some parts of the adjacent counties of Buckinghamshire, Essex and Hertfordshire in the United Kingdom.The Underground has its origins in the Metropolitan Railway, the world's first underground passenger railway. Opened in January 1863, it is now part of the Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines; the first line to operate underground electric traction trains, the City & South London Railway in 1890, is now part of the Northern line. The network has expanded to 11 lines, and in 2017/18 carried 1.357 billion passengers, making it the world's 11th busiest metro system. The 11 lines collectively handle up to 5 million passengers a day.The system's first tunnels were built just below the surface, using the cut-and-cover method; later, smaller, roughly circular tunnels—which gave rise to its nickname, the Tube—were dug through at a deeper level. The system has 270 stations and 250 miles (400 km) of track. Despite its name, only 45% of the system is underground in tunnels, with much of the network in the outer environs of London being on the surface. In addition, the Underground does not cover most southern parts of Greater London, with fewer than 10% of the stations located south of the River Thames.The early tube lines, originally owned by several private companies, were brought together under the UndergrounD brand in the early 20th century and eventually merged along with the sub-surface lines and bus services in 1933 to form London Transport under the control of the London Passenger Transport Board (LPTB). The current operator, London Underground Limited (LUL), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Transport for London (TfL), the statutory corporation responsible for the transport network in Greater London. As of 2015, 92% of operational expenditure is covered by passenger fares. The Travelcard ticket was introduced in 1983 and Oyster, a contactless ticketing system, in ...
