Michael Crawford

He starred in "Dance of the Vampires" on Broadway during late 2002 & early 2003 and is currently appearing in Lloyd Webber's new musical "The Woman in White" which opened at the Palace Theatre, London in September 2004. In September of 1992 he underwent treatment for alcohol abuse at Sierra Tucson Center. At the gala, Michael was presented with a Birthday cake. In 1980 he was involved in a serious skiing accident which sidelined his acting career for three years. He also performed "Music of the Night" at the Inaugural Gala for President George Bush in Washington DC on Jan 19th 1989. They have two children. Crawford has played leading roles in films such as Hello, Dolly (1968), but more often appears on stage, having starred in West End productions such as Billy (based on the novel, Billy Liar) (1974), Barnum (1981) (one of the longest runs by a leading man) and, most notably, Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera (1986), for which he won an Olivier Award (Best Actor in a Musical), a Tony Award (Best Performance By An Actor In a Lead Role, Musical), a N.Y's Drama Desk Award, and a Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Award for Distinguished Achievement in Theatre (Lead Performance). He's been married to Jones since November 18, 2000.

It was one of the BBC's most successful series of all time. That same year, Douglas married actress Catherine Zeta-Jones. Although he most often appears in musicals, he became known to millions for his role as the hapless Frank Spencer in the television sitcom, Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em, for which he performed most of his own stunts. They had one son, Cameron. The marriage failed in 2000 after 23 years after Diandra complained of his womanising, absenteeism and not being a proper father to Cameron. Crawford began his acting career as a seven-year-old, appearing in the première of Benjamin Britten's work for children, Let's Make an Opera. Douglas married Diandra Luker on 20 March 1977. Michael Patrick Dumble-Smith (born January 19, 1942), better known as Michael Crawford, is one of Britain's leading actors, so much so that he was voted into the Top "100 Greatest Britons" in a 2002 poll sponsored by the BBC. Douglas starred in Fatal Attraction with Glenn Close and the film became a world-wide hit.

He is one of the most sought after actors in Hollywood and commands a hefty sum for his roles. Michael Douglas received an Academy Award as producer for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest in 1975 and for the leading role in Wall Street in 1988. All this changed with 1984's romantic adventure comedy Romancing the Stone. His role in this hit movie re-introduced him as a capable and likable leading man. Though a capable actor, his career was somewhat stagnant after the series and he only appeared in occasional movies which were usually less than popular (for example, 1979's Running).

Douglas starred in the long-running TV series The Streets of San Francisco from 1972 to 1976. He is the son of actor Kirk Douglas. Michael Kirk Douglas (born September 25, 1944 in New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA) is an American actor and producer. Coma (1978).
