DINA MARTINA: SITTING OVATIONS

With ludicrous song, horrifying stories, and overburdened costumes, Dina Martina’s shows are impossible to adequately describe, so Rebecca Havemeyer and Fusebox are teaming up to bring her to Austin for one night only.

“Dina Martina goes way beyond drag into some new kind of twisted art.” – John Waters

“The most original drag performer working in America today.” – Michael Musto

“As graceful as a Coke machine moving about on a hand truck”. – Seattle Post Intelligencer

Tragic singer, horrible dancer and surreal raconteur, the hysterically funny Dina Martina debuted at Seattle’s Center on Contemporary Art in 1989, instantly gleaning reviews that dubbed her “magically warped”, “hilariously unfortunate” and “utter genius”.  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, Margaret Cho, Nina Hagen and Village People.
