 == The French Theatre, Cape Town 1807-1808 ==
-See Also known as "[[Den Franschen Schouwburg]]" in [[Dutch]].  A subscription theatre erected in the store of Mr [[J.H. Brand]] in Berg Street Cape Town in 1807.
+'''See [[Den Franschen Schouwburg]]'''
-The first performances were given in French by the [[French Theatre Company]] on 28 November of that year. Most probably under the guiding hand of [[C.E.Boniface]]. It appears to have closed by the end of 1808, since a sale and possible auction of all its goods (sets, costumes, etc) was advertised on 26 November 1808.
