According to William Groom (1899-1900, cited by Bosman, 1980 on p. 203), a play called either The Dear Admiral or simply Dear Admiral was done in the Harrington Street Theatre, Cape Town, by the Le Roy-Duret Company during their first season, being played on 20 and 26 April, 1866. No author is mentioned.
No reference to a play by this name can be found, though Bogar (2002) does list an anonymous play called The Rear Admiral (also by an anonymous author), among the plays performed in Baltimore by the comedian John E. Owens (1823-1886)[1] in 1845.
