("The lottery tickets, or the deceived cobbler" [lit: "shoe repairer"]) A comedy in two acts by the Dutch theatre manager and actor Ward Bingley (1757 -1818), based on a French orignal.
The original text
Though apparently an adaptation of a French work called Les Billets de Loterie, there is a suggestion by Loos[1] that it may in its turn have been based on a German play.
Translated into Dutch as De Loterijbriefjes, of De Bedrogen Schoenlapper by Ward Bingley and first performed at the Amsterdamsche Schouwburg (possibly in 1794), it was published in Amsteldam by Dempter 1794 and credited to Bingley.
Apparently the title was adapted to De Loterijbriefjes of de Bedrogen Schoenmaker ("The lottery tickets, or the deceived shoemaker")in later publications.
Performance history in South Africa
1822: Performed in Dutch in the African Theatre, Cape Town on 23 November by Tot Nut en Vermaak, with Makin, of De Ontdekking van (Barbax and Het Losse Schot (**/Holtrop).
Sources
