In a statement to IndieWire, Posey spoke of the impending party girl reissue:

“We made this film for the ‘kids’ – as we called them – young people from small towns who had big dreams and who for some reason didn’t fit in with the status quo. Our goal was to educate them - with style and color, wit and heart, music and dance. I’m glad the film came out with a re-release to inspire again - the unconventional way many of us live today.

“A special shoutout to the librarians who also enjoy fooling around on the dance floor, and while I’m at it, the art of DJing and other arts that keep us moving and free.”
