The company was founded in 1848, probably by dissident members of the companies [[Tot Nut en Vermaak]] en [[Door Yver Vruchtbaar]]. In 1849, the name was changed to [[Tot Oefening en Vermaak]], which virtually coincided with the birth of yet another company, [[Door Yver Bloeit de Kunst]], which was probably also founded by a dissident faction from within [[Hoop en Trouw]]. [[Hoop en Trouw]] performed in the [[Hoopstraat-Skouburg]].
