''[[De Schipbreuk, of De Korsaren op het Eiland Ivica]]'' is a ballet in three acts that was performed in the [[African Theatre]], Cape Town by "een gezelschap van jonge toneel- en dansliefhebbers" ("a young company of theatre and dance lovers") as a charity event on 18 and 25 August. (The group was possibly related to a similar French company active in Cape Town at the time.) 

According to [[F.C.L. Bosman]] (1928)  it may possibly have been a [[Dutch]] adaptation and translation of ''[[Miß Fanny, oder Der Schiffbruch]]'' ("Miss Fanny or the shipwreck", 1766), a German tragedy in five acts by Johann Christian Brandes (1735-1799)[https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Christian_Brandes].
