MAD, BAD AND DANGEROUS TO KNOW AT ABERDEEN ARTS CENTRE

ABERDEEN multi award winning quines Rona Munro (playwright) and actress Fiona Knowles have joined forces to offer another hilarious one woman show “Mad, bad and dangerous to know” at Aberdeen Arts Centre on Saturday, June 11.

Based on real life characters, this all-new solo comedy drama combines families, friendships and pure fantasy into a story of one woman growing old disgracefully, one woman not growing old at all and one…very, very scary child!

May's a bit mad - hitting 60 won’t stop her having a good time! And Matti is baad…..she may be only a child but she could curdle your rum punch! Meanwhile, the glamorous Mia is ageless and could be a little bit …dangerous to know!

Families are supposed to love each other – but May and her grand daughter Matti are struggling with that. Matti's been dumped with May for 3 weeks during the summer holidays - May likes salsa dancing; Matti likes zombie movies - they're never going to get on - and Matti thinks May's new best friend, neighbour Mia, looks like a very dangerous person to know…but May can't see it! Could May and Matti have more in common than they realise? Could discovering Mia's guilty secret bring them together? Or will this simply be another family holiday from hell?

This latest offering from Rona Munro and Fiona Knowles is set to delight female audiences across the North East. Rhona and Fiona are no strangers to working together having brought you Women Behaving Madly, Sex and Chocolate, Stick Granny on the Roofrack, Women on the Verge of a T-Junction, Fur Coat and Magic Knickers and more over their 18 year partnership.

And Fiona is no stranger to Aberdeen Arts Centre having tutored here in her early days during the Summer Arts Carnival and assisted the late Annie Inglis MBE in the running of the Texaco Theatre School, now known as Castlegate Theatre School.
