("For Practice and Taste") Cape Town: 1825 – 1826. Professional children’s company under the leadership/direction of J.G. Tredoux "de Jonge" (Jnr) when only 9 years old, though it was the initiative of Joseph Suasso de Lima and J.G. Tredoux (Snr). From its start the company experienced strong feelings of antipathy, reasons being that this type of theatre would have an undesirable influence on the youths and the involvement of children with the theatre was considered morally dubious. It was especially the Dutch who objected against the theatre at this time. Also opinions voiced in the prominent magazine, Nederduitsch Zuid-Afrikaansch Tydschrift*, which had a huge influence**. So, by 1826 the society had to be disbanded.
Productions by the company 1825-1826
10 September, 1825: Het Dal van Almeria, De Verjaring, De Nachtwacht.
8 April 1826: De Regter (De Genlis), Die een Kuil graft voor een ander valt er gemeenlyk zelfs in and De Moedwillige Jongen.
