| − | A theatre , opened in Hope Street, Cape Town in 1825 as an alternative venue to the [[Afrikaansche Schouwburg]], by [[Tot Nut en Vermaak]] and thereafter this society’s exclusive venue until 1834 (with the exception of sporadic appearances by English companies). Later the children’s dramatic society [[Tot Oefening en Vermaak]] played there (from 1835-1836) and from 1834 to 1838 the venue was also used by Boniface’s [[Vlyt en Kunst]]. From 1837, [[Tot Oefening en Vermaak]] played there. It was later known as both the [[Hope Street Theatre]] and (from 1846, when it was overhauled) the [[Victoria Theatre]], under which names it continued to exist until 1851. It was also briefly known as the [[Sans Souci Theatre]] in 1848, when [[Theatre de L’Union]] played there. The '''Liefhebbery Tooneel''' should however not be confused with another venue also situated in Hope Street, and briefly used in 1849, which was known as [[Haupt’s Warehouse]] or [[Haupt's Theatre]].
