Het Geheim
Het Geheim ("The Secret") is a Dutch title that appears to have been given to many plays, of which a number have been performed in South Africa. They are often translations from the French or the German (possibly even English, see The Secret a comedy in five acts by Edward Morris (1768-1815)[1]) and there is some confusion in some cases about which exact text is being used, for the works seem to be somewhat interwoven.
