*ABOUT DAVID PARSONS:* Parsons has enjoyed a remarkable career as a
performer, choreographer, teacher, director, and producer of dance.  He was
a leading dancer with The Paul Taylor Dance Company, where Mr. Taylor
created many roles for him in works such as Arden Court, Last Look and
Roses.  He is a recipient of the 2000 Dance Magazine Award, as well as the
2001 American Choreography Award, for his work as a co-producer of AEROS, a
production featuring the Romanian Gymnastic Federation that was featured on
Bravo.

Mr. Parsons has created more than 70 works for Parsons Dance.  He has
received commissions over the years from The American Ballet Theatre, New
York City Ballet, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, the American Dance
Festival, Jacob's Pillow, the Spoleto Festival, and Het Muziektheater in
Amsterdam, to name a few. His work has been performed by Paris Opera Ballet,
Joffrey Ballet, Nederlands Danse Theatre, National Ballet of Canada, Hubbard
Street Dance, and BatSheva Dance Company of Israel, among many others.

In June 2007, Mr. Parsons was honored to be the very first contemporary
choreographer ever to stage work at the centuries-old Arena di Verona, in
Verona Italy, where he choreographed Verdi's Aida. Jennifer Dunning of the
New York Times called David Parsons "one of the great movers of modern
dance."
