October 11 @ 7:30 pm - October 12 @ 4:00 pm
Sarah Douglas, from the iconic SUPERMAN movie series’ portrayal as the Kryptonian supervillain Ursa, will be at Emagine Batavia for two days, hosting special events on October 11-12, 2024. The weekend events will include a showing of SUPERMAN II on Illinois’ largest movie screen, the Super EMX, along with a Q&A with Sarah Douglas, a special edition poster, and a live auction taking place prior to the film, which will feature exclusive collective items including a rare, signed Christopher Reeve autograph and a limited-edition Caped Wonder coffee table book.
In addition, on Saturday, October 12, guests will be able to attend a Meet & Greet Autograph Signing and Photo event at Emagine Batavia with Sarah Douglas. Portion of proceeds will benefit Batavia United Way. Emagine Batavia is located at 550 Randall Rd., in Batavia, Illinois.
Emagine Entertainment has partnered once again with Batavia United Way and will be donating a portion of proceeds to support their causes. Batavia United Way provides funds to local agencies that combat health-related issues, for senior citizen programs, for educational and social programs for youth, and financial security for low-income families.
“Emagine takes pride in providing our guests with exceptional and unique experiences. Having the chance to engage in conversation with the legendary Sarah Douglas is a great honor,” said Anthony LaVerde, CEO of Emagine Entertainment. “A fundamental principle at Emagine is to contribute to and celebrate communities where we operate, not just benefit from them. Organizations like Batavia United Way exemplify the spirit of positive community impact, and we are thrilled to be working with them again as they truly embody the essence of doing good in our communities.”
“We are incredibly grateful to Emagine for their continued generosity and partnership in supporting Batavia United Way’s mission. Their commitment, showcased once again through this exciting Superman event, helps us make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families in our community. We couldn’t be more thankful for their dedication to our cause,” said Kathy Evangelista, Executive Director of Batavia United Way.
