De Liefhebbery Comedie in de War is a one act comedy by A. van der Stempel Jr

The original text

The reference in F.C.L. Bosman (1980, p.464) appears to be the only source citing a play by this name, and by them prolific author, translator and publisher Van der Stempel.

The only play title found containing the above title is the well-known 3 act play De Belagchelycke Tooneelzucht Of De Liefhebbery Comedie, In De War, a Dutch version of the French comedy Le Tripot Comique, ou La Comédie Bourgeoise by Marie Alexandre Detheis (Cailleau, 1774). The Dutch version was translated by Ward Bingley (1757- 1818) and published in Amsterdam by Pieter Johannes Uylenbroek in 1794.

It may thus be possible that this was a one-act ** of the Dutch play.
