EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, Lewis Waller, an esteemed actor and theatre manager of the early 20th century, exudes an air of confidence and authority. Born in 1860, Waller began his career on the stage in the late 1870s and quickly rose to prominence with his powerful performances and versatile acting abilities. By the turn of the century, he had become a popular and respected figure in the theatrical world. In addition to his successful acting career, Waller also made a name for himself as a theatre manager. He was known for his innovative productions and his ability to attract top talent to his theatres. One of his most notable achievements was the establishment of the Royal Court Theatre in London, which became a hub for new and experimental plays. In this photograph, taken circa 1910, Waller is depicted with his arms crossed, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a serious expression. The portrait captures the intensity and focus that defined his stage presence and his leadership in the theatre industry. Waller's contributions to the world of entertainment during the 1900s and 1910s were significant, and this portrait serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as an actor and theatre manager. Lewis Waller's career spanned over four decades, during which he appeared in numerous productions and managed several theatres. He was a trailblazer in the industry, pushing boundaries and setting new standards for both acting and theatre management. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a man who dedicated himself to the art of storytelling and the business of bringing it to life on stage.
