An amateur theatre company made up of a group of 72 Highlander regular soldiers in the Cape Town barracks. According to an undated handbill, they only did one performance in the late 1820's in Cape Town, consisting of Poole's 1825 farce Paul Pry, a song by mr Schofield, and Morton's 1819 farce A Roland for an Oliver. Among the performers in the two plays were S. Stewart, P. Smith, W. Williamson, A. Schofield, J.Foster, W. Cameron, T. Caldwell, G. Milne, T. Norrie, A. Ramsay.
