Can you explain the below and why? I do not

Andoui is a spoken word performance artist who has performed at major venues around the United States. Andoui entered into a written and signed contract with a smaller venue, the Nuyorican Poets Caf, to perform for their anniversary show. The Nuyorican spent thousands of dollars to advertise Andoui's upcoming performance and sold out all of the tickets for the performance. a)On March 25, Andoui lost his balance while mountain biking and hit a tree. He suffered a severe head injury and was placed in a medically induced coma for the next three days to relieve the pressure of the intracranial hematoma. Since Andoui is in the hospital, he will not be able to perform at their anniversary show on March 26. Is he liable to the Nuyorican for breach of contract? Explain fully. b)Instead of the facts in (a), assume that on March 25, Andoui calls the manager of the Nuyorican and tells her that he will not perform for them on March 26 because he received a better offer to perform from the Apollo Theater. The Nuyorican immediately begins a law suit against Andoui. Explain, separately, whether the Nuyorican will be able to: (i) Obtain an injunction preventing Andoui from performing at the Apollo Theater and collect money damages? (ii) Obtain an order of specific performance that requires Andoui to perform at the Nuyorican on March 26? Explain fully
