Caught on the Hop (Foxton)

Returning home unexpectedly early from a rendezvous with her lover, Sophie Fontaineau finds that her husband Etienne is absent and immediately suspects him of philandering. She accidentally spills brandy on her porter's trousers; the poor man soon finds himself trouserless behind a screen, desperately worried by the return of Etienne, who is disguised as The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Further complications ensue when Etienne's lover, "Esmeralda", appears and recognises the porter - now disguised as Sophie's aged aunt - as her husband. All is finally resolved ... or is it? Clothilde, the long-suffering maid, provides the final twist to this delightful comedy.
