The name given to a concert company or glee club active in South Africa in the late 1860s, as an activity of the 99th Regiment (also known as the 99th Lanarkshire Regiment) which hosted both the Lanarkshire Dramatic Club and the Lanarkshire Glee Club).
The company was active in July and August of 1868, performing in the Garrison Theatre, Cape Town, thereafter they appear to have been replaced by the more popular companies of minstrels.
