EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment comedian Fred Edwards takes center stage in the variety sketch 'The Kleptomaniacs' by Herbert Hall Winslow, performed in Cape Town, South Africa around 1910. Edwards, a tall and slim man with an expressive face, dons a top hat and a mischievous grin as he prepares to entertain the audience. In this comedy sketch, Edwards portrays a kleptomaniac, a person with an irresistible urge to steal. The scene unfolds as Edwards enters the stage, seemingly normal and respectable, only to be overcome by an uncontrollable urge to steal a banknote from a nearby prop bank. With a swift and sly move, he snatches the note and conceals it in his hat, all while maintaining a straight face and feigning innocence. The audience erupts in laughter as Edwards' comedic timing and physical comedy skills shine through. Herbert Hall Winslow's 'The Kleptomaniacs' was a popular variety sketch that showcased the comedic talents of Fred Edwards and other performers of the era. The combination of humor, wit, and unexpected twists made this sketch a crowd-pleaser and a staple of vaudeville and music hall entertainment in the early 1910s. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of live comedy and the unique charm of Fred Edwards' performance as a kleptomaniac in this classic sketch.
