"I was happy enough in the circus appearing as the tallest midget in captivity, but when my employer decided I should also appear as the smallest giant, I decided to seek my fortune elsewhere..." Michael Craig went on to forge a successful career in film, theatre, and writing, appearing with Julie Andrews, Barbara Streisand, Judi Dench, and Peter O'Toole, to name a few In The Smallest Giant, Michael Craig is at his wittiest. Starting as a journeyman actor in English rep, he went on to have a brilliant international career as a film and theatre actor and writer. He has appeared in more than fifty films and countless TV productions, acted with the RSC, on Broadway, and in the West End in major productions such as Funny Girl with Barbara Streisand. With an easy charm, Michael proves himself a talented raconteur as he tells the story of a struggling young actor who went on to spend over fifty hugely successful years in the business.
