Performance history in South Africa

1971: Karel was to have been presented in conjunction with Wolf, Wolf hoe laat is dit? and Teenspoed by Libertas Theatre Club under the direction of Marie van Heerden, opening 29 October 1971. However, in the absence of any theatre programme or newspaper reports (especially as one would expect in the local Stellenbosch weekly paper Eikestadnuus), it is assumed that the production never materialised.

1981: Performed as Karel in the Keller Theatre in May 1981 for examination purposes, directed by Lochner de Kock.
