 However, since the company that performed the play in Cape Town came from the USA, the m,ost likely candidate would have been (a version) of ''[[Mistress Nell]]'', a popular four act play subtitled "a Merry Tale of a Merry Time ('twixt fact and fancy). Written by the American author George C. Hazelton ()[], the play opened at Wallack's Theatre on Broadway on 21 April, 1901, and was published by Scribner's, New York, 1901
