Emagine Palladium to hold special screening of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

BIRMINGHAM, MI - Emagine Entertainment and Wish Upon a Teen are partnering for a special screening of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice at the Emagine Palladium in Birmingham on March 25. All proceeds from the 2 p.m. matinee showing of the movie will be donated to Wish Upon a Teen, an organization dedicated to providing resources, time and opportunities to teenagers with severe life-limiting medical conditions.
“Emagine is dedicated to serving the communities in which it does business and we can't think of a better way to demonstrate that commitment than to treat these deserving young people to a great day at the movies,” said Paul Glantz, CEO of Emagine Entertainment.
Fans can purchase $15 tickets in advance, or $20 at the door. The ticket price includes popcorn and a drink, and all proceeds go to the charity’s Design My Room program. Tickets can be purchased at http://Batmanvssuperman2016.eventbrite.com. The theater is located at 209 Hamilton Row.

Design My Room is Wish Upon a Teen’s signature program for teenagers facing extended hospitalization due to life-threatening illness or serious injury. Thanks to partnerships with hospitals throughout the country, Wish Upon a Teen is given access to the teen’s hospital room and allowed to redecorate it to feel more comforting and relaxing — more like “home.”
Michelle Soto, founder of Wish Upon a Teen, said over 300 teenagers benefited from having their hospital rooms decorated in 2015. This year, she expects the number of requests to double.
