Performance artist Penny Arcade’s new work-in-progress Old Queen will be the centerpiece of Dixon Place’s HOT! Festival of LGBT Performance and Culture, to run July 1-August 1.

The show, to run July 9-24, is a theatrical memoir that evokes the magic and memory of the gay men who raised her, including seminal figures like John Vacarro, Charles Henri Ford, HM Koutoukas, Taylor Mead, Jack Smith, and Andy Warhol.

Other participating artists will include Mike Albo, Janessa Clark, Sean Dorsey, Dan Fishback, Jeffery & Cole, John Kelly, Murray Hill, and Basil Twist.
