The play is set in a French village near the German border on the eve of a local festival. When an English couple, Stanley and Brenda, obtain a room for the night whilst on a motoring trip, they consider themselves lucky – but not for long. In Brenda’s absence less than an hour later, Stanley finds himself lowering an attractive girl stark naked from the window. The arrival of Claud, the attractive girl’s husband followed by his girlfriend, Simone, causes further chaos. By the second hour, almost everyone is in the wrong bed, as figures dressed as nuns and monks rush in an out and seductions and confrontations run rampant.
