The original text
Ketten ("Chains") is a play in four acts written by the German playwright Hermann Reichenbach (1869- - ). First produced at the Deutschen Theater, Berlin, in 1909, and published in Berlin-Charlottenburg by Verlags-Abteilung der Afa, 1908 and in Hamburg by Deutsch-Nordischer Verlag, 1909.
Translations and adaptations
Best known in its Dutch version, De Familie Lehmann, though the Dutch title Ketenen ("Chains") is also found with reference to a Dutch production in 1913[1].
Louis de Vries made his name playing "Abraham Sender" in De Familie Lehmann, doing it more than 1200 times, also touring the colonies. He billed the play as a Jewish family drama.
Performance history in South Africa
1916: A production featuring Louis de Vries toured to the Dutch Indies in 1916 and was also performed to acclaim in the Theatre Royal, Durban, as well as in Pretoria, Cape Town and elsewhere in the country during stops on their way back to the Netherlands. (They had been re-routed via the Cape because of the closure of the Suez Canal during the war.)
