David Parsons shows us music everyone knows like it’s never been seen before in Shining Star. A suite of dances performed to the timeless songs of Earth, Wind & Fire, the ballet builds around a central duet that celebrates a deep and lasting love. The two lovers are supported and celebrated by the community of dancers who surround them, rejoicing in the beauty and light that radiates from their commitment. Parsons’ playful wit and hopeful spirit meld perfectly with such familiar and uplifting songs as “That’s The Way of the World,” “September,” “Can’t Hide Love,” and “Shining Star.”
