PS: I remember when I first met Terese Capucilli. I said to her, gushing, "I've probably watched Errand into the Maze (2:05) about a hundred times." She said, "Oh, then you must know all the choreography by now." She was right. lol. I know the whole thing. Another of my favorite memories was watching this rehearsed at the MG center.

Oh my God! That's Terese Capucilli doing Sketches from Chronicle. When I was 19-years-old I was a student at the Martha Graham school and I used to watch in amazement as she would rehearse that revival. I actually used to help her move the prop around. One of the happiest memories of my life!
