Synopsis

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

At last the memoirs of Nicholas Craig theatrical eminence best known for his Truepate in The Cuckolde of Leicester and more popularly as Gob in Oh No! It's the Neighbours! are re-released for a grateful audience. Startlingly truthful, unflinchingly illustrated, I, An Actor is a piton up the slope of creativity for theatre fans and aspiring actors alike, revealing everything that most theatrical autobiographies cravenly avoid. Should you sport a moustache in your publicity photo? How can you fix a prolapsed labial or a bad case of blow-out? Is it true Brian Blessed only weighs 9½ stone? And what should you do when Hollywood comes calling? This book blows the lid off the secrets of the profession, leaving no reputation safe.
