Biography
Dito van Reigersberg is a co-founder of Pig Iron Theatre Company. He has performed in almost all of Pig Iron’s productions since its founding, including the OBIE-winning original pieces Hell Meets Henry Halfway and Chekhov Lizardbrain. He also dreamed up Pig Iron’s most recent endeavor, Poor Judge, a dance-theatre cabaret based on the songs of Aimee Mann. In 2022 Dito sang in Heather Christian’s “rapturous” Oratorio for Living Things (Drama Desk, Lortel Awards, NYT Best of 2022). His alter ego Martha Graham Cracker, famously ‘the tallest, hairiest drag queen in the world,” performs regularly at Joe’s Pub. She recently sang as a featured soloist with the Philadelphia Orchestra conducted by Yannick Nezet Seguin, and released an album of original songs entitled Lashed But Not Leashed.
