BIOGRAPHY:

Andrea Parson (OR) is a multidisciplinary theater artist born and raised in Hillsboro, Oregon. 
Andrea pursued dance training at the Joffrey Ballet School, San Francisco Conservatory of Dance, and Loyola Marymount University, where she earned a BA in Dance in 2009. Following graduation, she joined Northwest Dance Project in Portland, Oregon, where she was awarded the Princess Grace Dance Fellowship in 2010. Over 11 years with the company, she performed nationally and internationally, garnering acclaim for her portrayal of dramatic characters such as Hedda Gabler and Carmen.

Now based in Portland, Andrea creates and performs original solo and ensemble work that merges contemporary dance, physical theater, storytelling, and humor. Her recent award -winning solo, You Can’t Be Serious, was presented at BodyVox Dance Center (2023), Oregon Fringe Festival (2024), and Hollywood Fringe Festival (2024). Andrea presented You Can’t Be Serious at the Fall United Solo Festival 2024 in New York City where she received an award for best physical theater.

BONUS
CALL TO ARTISTS: MOVERS, STORYTELLERS, WRITERS, MUSICIANS, VISUAL ARTSTS
REFLECTIVE CREATIVE EXCHANGE with Andrea Parson
Thursdays, Fridays, or Saturdays throughout month of February (one session)

Andrea Parson is looking for an opportunity to see her work from other perspectives while also meeting other artists and inviting them to share as well. She will be organizing weekly 90-minute sessions when she will invite a combination of 2-3 artists to join her in some studio play.

“This would be a great way for me to connect and play with new material since much of my work does involve interaction with an audience. They don't have to be movement artists either, it would be fun to engage with artists of different disciplines.”

Click the link to the interest form below and Andrea will contact you to set up a session with you and a couple of other various artists.
