Line 1: Line 1:
''[[My New Wife and my Old Umbrella]]'' is ostensibly a play by R.B. Peake[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Brinsley_Peake](1792 – 1847),  as reported by [[F.C.L. Bosman]] (1928, p.398) from local papers in Cape Town in 1850. However,  Bosman's entry is very confusing, since he also mentions ''[[My Young Wife and My Old Umbrella]]'' by Benjamin Webster, and there is no record of a play by this name by Peake, the two titles appears to refer to the same play - ''[[My Young Wife and My Old Umbrella]]'' by Webster. It was possibly wrongly advertised by the company or wrongly quoted by a reporter. (Later on, in the same source, there is another confusion, also pointed out by Bosman.)
