Thank you for your reply.. I found the same reference in an interesting website called "The Estate Project."

That's not the Joffrey COMPANY, though. The marker year for them is 1956. This was a pickup group.

Edited to add: This is not to take away any of the accomplishments of the Joffrey proto-companies. They played an important part in getting that station wagon with the U-haul trailer out on the road! Persephone actually lived longer in England than it did in the US, as a part of Ballet Rambert's repertoire.
