 The play was translated into [[Afrikaans]] as  '''''[[Galgtou]]''''' ("hangman's noose") by [[André Huguenet]] in 1945.

This is possibly part of a strategy by Huguenet when on tour to draw bigger audiences by avoiding the contentious title and perhaps seeking to play on the religious sentiments of his conservative [[Afrikaans]] public. This was a practice he would follow throughout his career when playing in small towns. In his autobiography however, Huguenet only refers to the play as ''[[Galgtou]]'', as does the historian [[Ludwig Binge]] (1969) and a number of the performers in the production (e.g. [[Antonius Ferreira]] in Van Schoor ''et al.'', 1962.).
