Talent-stuffed and sanitarium-ready, the hysterically funny Dina Martina debuted at Seattle's Center on Contemporary Art in 1989, instantly gleaning reviews that dubbed her "magically warped", "utter genius" and "excruciatingly funny". Since then, she's packed venues in New York, Los Angeles, London, Toronto and San Francisco and shared the bill with acts such as Modest Mouse, Nina Hagen and Village People.
Recently, Dina Martina's hugely successful shows in New York and Provincetown have made ardent fans of Whoopi Goldberg, Jennifer Coolidge, Margaret Cho and John Cameron Mitchell among many others. Martina has received two Footlight Awards from The Seattle Times and has been nominated for an Alpert Award, a SPIT Award for Best Solo Show and two GLAAD Media Awards for Outstanding Off-Off Broadway Theater.
Absolutely packed with ludicrous song, horrifying dance, overburdened costumes and more bizarre audience gifts than law should permit, Dina Martina's shows are impossible to describe - other than that they've become synonymous with jaw-dropping pathos and mind-blowing comedy. Dina Martina has been hailed as "a train wreck in heels", "like Vegas on crack" and "one of the best nightmares you'll ever have". What a Dina Martina show is, quite simply put, is a smart and hilarious evening of entertainment that you will never forget.
