De Keukenhelden ("Heroes of the kitchen") is a one-act Dutch farce by C. van Foreest.


The original text

Based on Les Héros de Cuisine, ou L'enfant de l'Amour, a "tragédie burlesque en 1 acte et en vers" by Jacques André Jacquelin, published by Fages, Paris, 2 March 1799 and by Delavigne in 1815. According to Charles Etienne Boniface (cit. Bosman, 1928: p. 276), the French play was itself a parody of Voltaire's five act tragedy Tancrède.

The Dutch text was published anonymously in Amsterdam by Pieter Johannes Uylenbroek, in 1799.
