Edinburgh Culture Review ***** The List **** Mumble Theatre **** Voice Mag ****
"A true raconteur, she transports the audience through defining moments of her life with poetic flair." - The List UK
"This was a powerful, beautifully conceived piece, with Dinerman dancing through her brilliant script with grace and ease. I cant tell you just how inspirational and powerful an effect this show has on you you'll just have to go and experience it for yourself." - Mumble Theatre
About the Show: What happens when the finish line is finally in sight, and you realize you're running the wrong race? If you're Diana Dinerman, you stop, pivot and then run like hell, in another direction. You don't know where you're going, you just know you're running for your life - the life you want. At least, you hope so.
DETOUR is Diana Dinerman's solo show about what happened next. In a refreshing portrait of getting your life all wrong, she let go of who she thought she was and founds parts of herself she didn't know she had. Told with humor and insight, Diana Dinerman has her finger on the pulse of every woman rising up.
