''[[Mischief-making]]'' is a farce in one act by John Baldwin Buckstone (1802-1879)[]

==The original text==

Published in Lacy's acting edition by [[Thomas Hailes Lacy]], 1868

==Translations and adaptations==

== Performance history in South Africa ==

1861: Performed by [[Sefton Parry]] and his company in the [[Theatre Royal]], Cape Town, on 18 May, with a dance (Pas de Matlots) by [[Miss Powell]], a popular ballad sung by [[Leffler]] and as ''[[Giralda, or The Invisible Husband]]'' (ascribed to Welstead). The latter piece apparently caused some consternation and resistance among Cape Town citizens because of its perceived "licentiousness", in the text and the vulgarity of the performances.
