Teaming up with the prestigious Lincoln Center in New York City, Emerging Pictures, in partnership with Hybrid Cinema And Cinematique of Daytona, will be presenting the World Premiere of the documentary Joffrey: Mavericks of American Dance at movie theatres simultaneously with the film’s screening at Film Society of Lincoln Center on January 28th.

Joffrey: Mavericks of American Dance takes a look at the Joffrey Ballet, the groundbreaking cultural treasure known as the first truly American dance company. Narrated by Tony® and Emmy® Award winner Mandy Patinkin and directed by Bob Hercules (Bill T. Jones: A Good Man), the film documents how the Joffrey revolutionized American ballet by daringly combining modern dance with traditional ballet technique, combining art with social statement and setting ballets to pop and rock music scores. The film features rare excerpts from many seminal Joffrey works including Astarte, Trinity and Billboards.

This event will also include an interactive post-screening Q&A featuring a panel of talent past and present from the Joffrey, to be webcast LIVE into the theater.. If you attend a screening you can submit questions and comments in real time to the panelists through Twitter using the hashtag #JoffreyMovie.
