Penny Arcade is a force of nature and NYC's undisputed underground queen. Driven by her magnetic rock'n'roll energy, Penny Arcade presents 'an orgasm of adrenalin and sunshine' (Sydney Morning Herald). She strikes a blow against the golden age of stupidity, turning contemporary stand-up on its head to create a crack in the post gentrified landscape. An award-winning performance anthem to think, drink, laugh and dance to at the same time! 'A revelation that calls for a revolution' (Advertiser). 'Hot and hysterically funny' (New York Post). 'Most quotable theatrical party in town... audacious and irresistible!' (Times).

Interview: Penny Arcade

Last year Longing Lasts Longer by Penny Arcade was a huge hit at The Soho Theatre, this year it travels to Edinburgh in collaboration with The Soho Theatre and London Artists Projects. It's hilarious, lively and gloriously queer, whilst candidly discussing the problematic issue of gentrification. This week LGBTQ Arts' Amie Taylor ran a quick fire Q and A with Penny to find out about her latest piece.
