When Penelope shoots her husband - in Actinghouse Productions' A Slight Accident - she does not wail, get hysterical or jump for joy.
She merely picks up the telephone and calls Camilla. The two women chat as if nothing was amiss, with a dead body lying close by.
Actinghouse Productions have developed a play with a difference: the audience will not only be treated to theatre, but get to watch a soap opera, or rather a parody of a soap opera.
When Camilla's husband, Roger, prepares her cocoa before going to bed only to find his wife is not at home, his world is devastated.
Penelope, Camilla and Roger prance around the room, drinking alcohol and failing to understand each other.
James Saunders' A Slight Accident has played to packed audiences all over the world.
