Jane Asher is currently appearing as Elsa in Festen (The Celebration) a dramatisation by David Eldridge based on the Dogme film and play by Thomas Vinterberg.
Patriarch Helge Klingenfelt is celebrating his 60th birthday with his family at a magnificent old hotel in the Danish countryside. Gathered together are his loyal wife, Elsa, his daughter Helene and sons, Christian and Michael. As the evening progresses Christian feels compelled to break the silence surrounding a family secret.
Jane talks to Jenni about her latest role in a dark family drama - a far cry from cake-baking and home-making.
Festen is at the Almeida Theatre, London until 24 April
