One of the names given to the amateur theatre group that had been formed in the Cape Town Garrison (also known as the Garrison Amateur Company, the Gentlemen Amateurs or simply the Amateur Company), and used to differentiate them from the civilian amateurs who were called the English Theatricals. The two apparently competed heavily with one another for audiences, also for use of the African Theatre.
