A FEW PRESS COMMENTS

Parnova excels not only in her facile movement and ease of gesture, but her charming personality captivates her audience. Dancing by her is so effortless that we can easily forget the technique and revel wholeheartedly in the dance as an emotional experience.
KENNEBEC JOURNAL, AUGUSTA, ME.

Not since Nijinsky has there been such a dancer.
N. Y. BiLLBOARD

Last night she lived up to her high reputation as a creative artist and a talented technical dancer … heartily enjoyed by a large audience.
PATRIOT, CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I., CANADA

Mr. Strawbridge is undoubtedly one of the world's outstanding dancers.
HARTFORD TIMES

Miss Parnova has flawless technique, amazing versatility and rare dramatic power—won her audience from the start.
HERALD-COURIER, BRISTOL, TENN.

He has lightness and elevation, strength and clarity—above all a distinct quality of beauty in his movements.
JOHN MARTIN, N. Y. TIMES
