Mr Poortemans (17**-18**) was apparently a magic lantern entertainer, who appeared in Cape Town as part of an evening's entertainment presented by Vlyt en Kunst in the African Theatre on 10 September 1836. The programme included Nognetzoo (Boniface), Het Fancy Bal!!! and, as an interlude, a "zeer prachtig Transparant" ("a very beautiful transparency") by Den Heer Poortemans. Music provided by the musical group De Vriendschap
