2024 Lake Placid Residency

September 9-29, 2024

Parsons Dance returned to Lake Placid Center for the Arts (LCPA) for its fourth residency at this stunning venue located in the Adirondack Park of Northern New York.  While in residency, our dancers worked with gifted choreographer Rena Butler in creating a new work set to a soundscape by Darryl J. Hoffman. They also led in-person and digital classes, along with workshops geared towards teaching the Parsons approach to contemporary dance. All workshops and open rehearsals were free and available to everyone, with all experience levels welcome.  In addition, the company staged a public performance that included beloved repertory pieces and recently created works from the Parsons repertory.  Also on the roster was a special in-creation showing of Butler and Hoffman’s piece. 

We are incredibly grateful to the Lake Placid community for welcoming us here and for giving us the opportunity to accomplish so much!
