Monsieur Dupree (18**-18**) was a v audeville artist and acrobat who was apparently touring the colonies, a specialist in the "slack rope" act, which was popular in the mid 1800s.
He is first mentioned in Cape Town when he performed a vaudeville act on the "slack rope" as part of an evening's entertainment presented in the African Theatre by All the World's a Stage on 8 August, 1833, with plays somewhat wrongly announced as The Inch Cape Bell, or The Dumb Boy of the Rocks (Fitzball) and The Two Gregorys, or Where Does the Money Come From? (Dibdin).
