Penny Ashton is a celebrated NZ comedienne who’s also laid them in aisles in Edinburgh and packed them in throughout the UK, US and Canada.
In 2006, she represented NZ in The World Cup of Theatresports in Germany and Australasia in a Performance Poetry Slam Tournament Tour of theUK. In 2010, she performed by invitation at The Glastonbury Festival and reported from the Miss Universe Pageant in Las Vegas.
A self-described “saucy minx”, Ashton has created a show that purports to trawl “the ins and… outs of the international sex industry”. Crammed full of “titillating facts and hour-glass figures” about the world’s oldest profession, it also boasts “a group orgasm, a guest porn-star and a very sexy stripper”.
She promises to “sing, dance and pontificate” in a hot-pink corset and “strung up” in fishnets.
Perhaps the most amazing thing is that she’ll be performing in the normally chaste surrounding of Teatro Vivaldi Restaurant, ANU Arts Centre on July 14, dinner at 7pm, show at 8.30pm.
