(“Our little theatre theatre group”), Pretoria. Considered to be the best organised Afrikaans theatre society of its time, it was founded by former members of [[Kaapse Afrikaanse Toneelvereniging]] (KAT), [[Anna Neethling-Pohl]], prof. [[M.L. du Toit]] and [[Leonie Pienaar]] in 1935. Other members included Dr. [[W.H. van der Merwe]] and [[P.J du Toit]].

The name of the company reflected the main ambition of the group: to establish a small theatre along the lines of the [[Little Theatre]] in Cape Town, and to indulge in experimental work not possible for commercial and professional groups. This ethos was reflected in the choice of Ibsen’s ''[[Boumeester Solness]]'' (''[[The Master Builder]]'') as first production, at a time when Ibsen was neither well-known nor popular. This production, as well as subsequent productions in 1936, e.g. three locally written one-act plays ( ''[[Terwyl daar Basaar gehou word]]'' by [[Marie Linde]], ''[[Die Peswolk]]'' by Grosskopf, ''[[In die wagkamer]]'' by Grosskopf), ''[[Rooibruin Blare]]'' and ''[[Ousus]]'' by [[H.A. Fagan]] (as a double bill), and ''[[Hantie Kom Huistoe]]'' by [[P.W.S. Schumann]] were however extremely well-received by the press. On 19 November 1936, the final performance of ''[[Hantie Kom Huistoe]]'' , the society ceased to exist under this name, and on the 12th December of the year the name was changed to [[Volksteater]].
