Saturday night I went to see “wild-hearted demoness bad-girl bitch” performance artist Penny Arcade workshop her new show, Old Queen, at the Dixon Place Hot Festival. Old Queen is an ode to the gay intelligentsia of New York and the national underground scene that brought Penny up as an artist and thinker in the 1960s. I had never seen Penny before and didn’t quite know what
to expect. She’s oddly reminiscent of Roseanne Barr – if Roseanne had played a beat poet in an Andy Warhol film.
