Defending accessibility

David Parsons: I don't have a problem with accessibility. We have enough serious dance companies on the planet.
To tell you the truth, I can't do anything else. It's who I am. I really love connecting with an audience. Part of that is being accessible to them, being able to communicate. We often use pop music; we like really connecting with today's scene.
People really give me sh!t for the accessibility thing, and I stand by who I am. You have to do that. The reality is: We're working.
