Marvin has been a member of the Everett Dance Theatre (EDT) since 1988. His growth as an artist stems from the company's unique improvisational style. From the circus arts to ballet to high school wrestling to breakdancing, the Everett performers feed on many forms, encouraging new movement styles in their full-length evening concerts. The company has also received numerous honors, including a Pell Award for Excellence in the Arts, Fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, and a Bessie, the prestigious New York choreography Award.
