WHAT would you do if you found £735,000?

Henry Perkins, a mild-mannered accountant has to make this decision when he discovers that his briefcase has been swapped for another at the underground station and he is now considerably better off than before.

Meanwhile, wife Jean is preparing Henry's birthday dinner and expecting friends for the celebration.

Jean gets frantic - and tipsy - as Henry wants to forget about his birthday and friends so that they can leave the country as soon as possible, having figured out that the money is definitely "funny".

All proceeds from this production are going to the National Children's Homes charity.

Making her directorial debut with this Ray Cooney farce is Rachel Craig.

Rachel scooped a Daily Echo Curtain Call Award for Best Actress this year and is hoping she can pick up a gong for her directoring skills too.

"I've acted for three years so wanted to try my hand at directing," explains Rachel.

"It's very different being in the director's chair but I am enjoying it enormously."
