David Parsons and Parsons Dance enter their second week at the Joyce, performing two programs through January 22. Program A consists of the world premiere of the Joyce commission A Stray’s Lullaby by guest choreographer Kate Skarpetowska (with music by Kenji Bunch), a duet from Step into My Dream, the world premiere of Parsons’s Round My World, featuring a digital score by Zoe Keating, and the repertory pieces Caught and Swing Shift, while program B includes Envelope, Hand Dance, the excerpt from Step into My Dream, Slow Dance, and the stroboscopic Caught and Swing Shift. Continuing its mission to “deliver positive, affirming and life-enriching experiences to audiences worldwide” that it began in 1985, Parsons Dance will also be holding a Summer Intensive Workshop from May 29 to June 16 and the David Parsons Master Choreography Workshop from June 18 to 22 at the Manhattan Movement & Arts Center.
