Nature and science Staff Pick: Love the One You’re With The Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics A slender man (Taylor Mac) arrives on stage in a lifeboat; his sturdy peer (Mandy www.cfa.harvard.edu/publicevents Patinkin) climbs out of a trunk. Strangers, they alone have survived a great flood.

Roles intertwine: sometimes Mac is the clown, or “Lear’s fool,” as Patinkin said in an A.R.T. interview. “But at The Arnold Arboretum times he’s Lear and I’m the fool. That’s what’s really fun about the relationship.” The www.arboretum.harvard.edu intimate project was directed and choreographed by Susan Stroman, a veteran of In The Grove: A Summer Solstice Journey. big Broadway musicals, and debuted in 2013 in workshop form in lower Manhattan.

He and the equally versatile stage and screen actor Patinkin are clearly kindred spirits. Their singing voices meld perfectly even as they exploit a yin/yang physical dynamic. A fluid, elastic presence, Mac can also beam beatifically. Patinkin, with his meaty forearms is, at least initially, more of a re- luctant rock. But he comes around. Who wouldn’t—when stranded with Mac and roused by a musical lineup from children’s ditties and Rodgers and Hammerstein to Gillian Welch, and, naturally, R.E.M.’s take on cultural chaos and new beginnings: “It’s the End of the American Repertory Theater
