Life Shop Till You Drop!
The hilarious rise and fall of Ireland's first self-help guru.

Following four sell-out National tours from 2007 to 2009, Life Shop till you Drop! started sixth nationwide tour in April 2010.

Life Shop till you Drop! is the Sassy Girl’s Self-Help Solution.

Ailish McGovern is an unfulfilled Recruitment Consultant. For Ailish life would be perfect if she had a marriage proposal, a glamorous job and most importantly won Irish Tatler Woman of the Year. And so she selects this as the year in which she will transform her life, by applying all of the instructions and mantras of self-help gurus.

Join Ailish, as she goes speed dating, feng shui's her 100% mortgaged apartment and targets the perfect boyfriend, using the New York manual ‘Your soul mate is out there and missing you.’ Next on her hit list is taking over her boss' job using ‘The work secrets only successful people know!’

However it seems that no self-help book that she has studied, teaches that pride comes before a fall. A cautionary tale, or more likely, a wickedly fun spoof on our love of going life shopping.
