Since Crawford discovered his love of performing, he has acted in many mediums [[LongRunners over nearly fifty-five years]]. Films (even working with Music/JohnLennon in ''How I Won the War''), musicals, stage plays, television programmes (including his iconic role as Frank Spencer in ''Series/SomeMothersDoAveEm''), radio plays -- you name it, he's done it. But in TheEighties he decided to add an audiography to his ever-expanding list. He cut his first record, ''Songs From the Stage and Screen'', in 1987, undoubtedly inspired by being cast in ''Phantom'' in London the previous year.

It was not until this time that he seriously thought of becoming an actor, as he previously wanted to join the air force (he maintained an interest in joining the [=RAF=] well into adulthood). After joining a children's theatre group, he was advised to change his name as there was another Michael Ingram in attendance. He thus came up with the name [[StageNames "Michael Crawford"]] after seeing an advert for Crawford's biscuits [[LineOfSightName on the side of a lorry]].

Since then, his theatrical ventures have been something of a hit - and - miss, but in 2011 he was cast as the Wizard in the Creator/AndrewLloydWebber re-imagining of ''Theatre/{{The Wizard of Oz|2011}}'', which he played until February 2012.
