The Joffrey Ballet at The Granada Theatre

Hailed as “America’s Company of Firsts,” The Joffrey Ballet was the first to appear on television, first to perform at the White House, first to appear on the cover of Time magazine and even first to have a major feature film based on it (Robert Altman’s The Company). Nearly 60 years after its founding, this sterling company remains on the forefront of American dance, with exemplary dancers who demonstrate “the amazing power of the human body and the crazy reach of the artistic imagination” (Chicago Sun-Times). The Joffrey performs a rapturous program drawn from its impeccable repertory.
