Ernest Searelle Comedy Company

According to D.C. Boonzaier (1923, cited in Bosman, 1980, p. 403), a company called the Ernest Searelle Comedy Company toured South Africa in the late 19th century, giving an excellent performance of The New Boy (Lumley) in Cape Town in 1895, with a cast that consisted of Hope Dudley, Herbert Flemming, Leslie Kenyon and William Devereux.

However, no further mention of the name Ernest Searelle has been found and as the name "Ernest Searelle" does not appear in the index to Bosman (1980), is just possible that either Boonzaier (1923) or Bosman (citing Boonzaier on p. 403) may have the name wrong in this case and that the company was in actual fact one of Luscombe Searelle's enterprises. Possibly named the Luscombe Searelle Comedy Company (or Searelle Comedy Company).
