Carol does Martha

As I recall, in this show there is a WONDERFUL spoof of an aging modern dance diva on her one thousandth farewell tour--complete with kabuki hair, potted look on her face, sagging everything, and carried around the stage by a bunch of strong men, but too old and tired to actually dance. Carol does Martha Graham to mean perfection. I wish I could get my hands on this.
