The title The Secret of the Hole in the Wall occurs in F.C.L. Bosman (1980), as a work by an anonymous author.
It was performed under this title at the Harrington Street Theatre, Cape Town, by the Cape Town Dramatic Club on 9 July, 1858, with Plot and Passion, or The Female Gambler (Taylor and Lang).
