Barber of Seville, The by De Beaumarchais. According to travel-writer Le Vaillant a good production of Beaumarchais’ play was done in the Cape in 1783. Performed (wholly or in part) in the Cape Town Barracks Theatre during the occupation by French troops sent to defend the Cape against the British Fleet (1781-1795) it was possibly the first production by them and it counts as one of the first documented performances in South Africa.
