Scared Skinny

Even if you don't need to lose an ounce, check out Mary Dimino's one-woman show, Scared Skinny. Dimino, who won the 2008 Gracie Allen Award for the PBS documentary, Fat: What No One is Telling You, returns to the limelight with self-penned stories on how she triumphed over her food obsession. It is not necessary to be familiar with her other stints on stage and TV. This show is self-contained. A born raconteur, Dimino chronicles growing up as a roly-poly Italian-American child in Queens, where her mother routinely served her sausage-and-pepper sandwiches (and a cannoli for dessert) for lunch. Not surprisingly, she became very pudgy, an easy target for the neighborhood children to tease mercilessly. Though she was too young to worry about her cholesterol level, she did worry if she would ever wear cute clothes or be kissed by a boy. According to Dimino, the turning point of her young life was when she overheard 2 "Guidos" call her fat. Their demeaning attitude and cruel words pushed her to realize her childhood dream (foretold by a Ouija Board) of being skinny. Despite the real pain tucked into her life story, Dimino is extremely funny as she spins her yarns. She has a vast range of anecdotes on dieting do's (Walking is effective!) and don'ts (Buying cartons of Devil Dogs at Pathmark leads to bingeing!). Obviously, she's determined to wring the neck of her food passion. And if the past is prologue, she will continue to triumph over her penchant for compulsive eating. With many years of acting in her cupboard, this comedienne, writer, and actor looks quite at ease on stage. Dimino has appeared as a guest on NBC's Today Show, The Chris Rock Show, Comedy Central, just to mention a few. She has been in sketches on Late Shows with both David Letterman and Conan O'Brien and is a regular on the comedy club circuit. On stage she has played the Maid of Honor in Tony and Tina's Wedding and had a featured part in the Off-Broadway musical Surprise. Perhaps the reason that Dimino is so popular on both TV and stage is that she doesn't try to impress you with her brilliance. She invites your interest and approval. Beyond that, she has 2 qualities that are essential to a solo-performing artist: exuberance and heart. At Paradise Factory. 77 minutes. [Donovan]
