**Outrageous and inspirational,** Arcade occupies a unique position in the American avant-garde and counterculture movement.

*Longing Lasts Longer* is her double award-winning Edinburgh show, which turns contemporary stand-up on its head to create a crack in the post-gentrified landscape.

Driven by her magnetic rock ‘n’ roll energy, Arcade’s razor-sharp satire is mixed live to euphoric soundscapes inspired by four decades of pop culture. It’s a passionate performance anthem where you can think, laugh and dance at the same time.
