“The Dina Martina Christmas Show” plays at Re-Bar through Dec. 31.
Hardly anyone refers to Dina Martina as a female impersonator. As her current Christmas show demonstrates, she’s so much more than a drag act. Created by Seattle performer Grady West, Dina is a connoisseur of tackiness (a yodeling pickle takes a bow in the new show) and a genius at whimsically mangling the English language for dramatic effect (“I am shingle”) – yet she’s always oddly endearing.
