 The play was translated into [[Afrikaans]] by [[André Huguenet]] with the title '''''[[Geleende Vere]]''''' ("borrowed feathers"). First performed in 1944, the text published by [[DALRO]] in 1969. However, Huguenet and the [[DALRO]] publication wrongly refer to the original text as ''Die Kleine Komödie'' instead of ''[[Kleine Komödie]]''.
