Max Wall, London 1986.

In the fifties, the actor/comedian Max Wall was a huge star in Britain, until his career was ruined by an extra marital affair. It seems so strange nowadays that that sort of thing could ruin anyone's career, let alone a comedian.

I took this photograph, which was commissioned by London listings magazine  Time Out, on the stage of a theatre (I honestly can't remember which one) whilst he was appearing in his one man show 'An Evening With Max Wall'.
