Are You a Mason? by * Dietrichstein. * Translated into Afrikaans as Is Jy ‘n Bokryer? by Dirk Mostert and produced by André Huguenet in 194*. The play was greeted with enthusiasm in rural towns, but in the cities this comedy was boycotted due to Huguenet’s refusal to donate funds to the Governor-General's Fund for the war and he was marked as unpatriotic.

George Giddens, brought from England by the Wheeler Theatre Company, acted in Are you a Mason?, a farce translated from C. Logenbruder's original German, at the Good Hope Theatre on 4 April 1904. (Source: Bosman, F.C.L., Drama en Toneel in Suid-Afrika, Deel II, 1856-1916. 1980).
