In her latest monologue, Longing Lasts Longer, the voice of yesteryear’s Lower East Side bemoans gentrification, cupcake shops, coddled college students and that 45th president. Now well into her 60s, Arcade is still a ferociously funny talent more than happy to use her honeyed tongue to speak the truth. cap.ucla.edu
