Mischief-making is a farce in one act by John Baldwin Buckstone (1802-1879)[]

The original text
Published in Lacy's acting edition by Thomas Hailes Lacy, 1868
Translations and adaptations
Performance history in South Africa
1861: Performed by Sefton Parry and his company in the Theatre Royal, Cape Town, on 18 May, with a dance (Pas de Matlots) by Miss Powell, a popular ballad sung by Leffler and as Giralda, or The Invisible Husband (ascribed to Welstead). The latter piece apparently caused some consternation and resistance among Cape Town citizens because of its perceived "licentiousness", in the text and the vulgarity of the performances.
