New show looks at the funny side of shopping

A MAKEUP tip from Cumbernauld Theatre - wear waterproof mascara when watching MsFits Theatre Company's one-woman comedy drama, Fur Coat and Magic Knickers as they expect the audience to shed tears of laughter.

Actress Fiona Knowles and playwright Rona Munro, previously responsible for Sex & Chocolate, Women on the Verge of a T Junction and Stick Granny on the Roofrack, created this look at women's obsession with shopping.

The show features three characters, all played by Fiona Knowles. Compulsive Maggie has more cards than Hallmark. She just has to buy, buy, BUY! But why has she got her eye on the store detective?
