During the rehearsal process of my solo show ' MTOTO' I noticed I was stuck in the material. With only a few days left for my first week of try-outs I decided to bring my piece to Dinanda. She showed me the importance of making the story always the priority. Because of that I could let go of my ego, insecurities and thoughts and ideas I had. Therefore my acting and storytelling was much easier and way more fun. |

Dinanda is the upmost professional. Working with her production company Pink Highway LLC was a delight. She provided free rehearsal and performance space. She also provided marketing for the show as well as resources like talented technicians, and printing and design of the program. her work provided essential development aid to a new play in progress. we hope to continue to work with her in the future. |

She is extremely perceptive and has a keen sensibility for authentic and quality work. Her skills, insight and ability to transmit ideas is exceptional.
