One of the most popular themes for pantomime and children’s plays. In South Africa many versions have been done. E.g. the production by Philip D. Levard for African Consolidated Theatres in the Empire Theatre and at the Alhambra Theatre in 1945 (starring Ivy Tresmand, Harry Hambleton and Neil McKay); by Maralin Vanrenen in 1984, with what they called “a Cape flavour” with Dale Cutts, Charles Comyn, Adrienne Pearce, Peter Krummeck*?, Jennifer Ferguson, Peter Butler, Mike Chase, Baxter Theatre, 1984. Marilyn Taylor’s musical band; by Joyce Levinsohn and Jill Gerard at the Intimate Theatre in 1986; by Janice Honeyman (who wrote and directed the text, again with a South African slant?*) for PACT in 1988, and again in *****. Janice Honeyman’s version A Lad ‘n’ a Lamp. Another version by Janice Honeyman was translated by Nerina Ferreira in ****. Another pantomime version by De Wet Laubscher in ****.**
