...with the dancer. The opening-night program included the serene Canticle for Innocent Comedians, a work inspired by the poetry of St. Francis of Assisi, and last performed in 1953. There were other old favorites, like the 1946 Dark Meadow and the 1947 Errand into the Maze, both symbol-laden ritualistic works, which give the current programs far more the look of Graham retrospectives than was the case in previous Manhattan appearances.

The other five did not really matter; Raquel's publicity raced pellmell ahead of her films. "20th Century-Fox billed me as a sex symbol in Fantastic Voyage," she recalls, but "I was nothing but a rotten little nurse." In One Million Years B.C. she was a cave lady lurking about in a pneumatically uplifted fur sarong. She did something for the costume, and the studio proved it by using a publicity still (James Bond...
