The Ernest Searelle Comedy Company was a theatrical company that toured South Africa in the late 19th century.
According to Boonzaier (1923) the company gave an excellent performance of The New Boy (Lumley) in Cape Town in 1895, with a cast that consisted of Hope Dudley, Mr Flemming, Leslie Kenyon and William Devereux.
As the name "Ernest Searelle" does not appear in the index to Bosman, is just possible that either Boonzaier (1923) or Bosman (1980, citing Boonzaier) may have the name wrong and that the company's name was actually the Luscombe Searelle Comedy Company.
