McCole and Mia McSwain.
Company founder and artistic director David Parsons was the leading dancer for the Paul Taylor Dance Company from 1978 to 1987, when he left to form his company. Since then, his modern dance company has performed on five continents to critical acclaim.
The Parsons dances are theatrical in nature, with an exuberant athleticism.
The company will stage master dance classes on Kauai, Hilo and Maui, which are being supported by the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts.
