Given that her most famous work was namedBITCH!DYKE!FAGHAG!WHORE, it’s probably safe to describe the title of Penny Arcade’s new show as on the subtle side.

Legendary stand-up comedian/Warhol contemporary/free speech advocate Arcade is set to return to Australia with a brand new show, Longing Lasts Longer.

The work, a self-described call to action that Arcade hopes will inspire audience members to “change the world around them”, has already won two awards and recieved rapturous critical notices. It’s sure to be a raucous evening unlike many others, so those who like their comedy to fall on the other side of good taste should certainly head along.

Penny Arcade hits Giant Dwarf Theatre on Wednesday April 6, and her show runs through till Saturday April 16. Tickets are available here.
