Filmography
The Naked Civil Servant (1975) (introduction). As he had done in London Crisp allowed his telephone number to be listed in the telephone directory and saw it as his duty to converse with anyone who called him.

From a conventional suburban background Crisp grew up with effeminate tendencies which he flaunted by parading the streets in make-up and painted nails and working as a rent-boy. His one-man stage show was a long-running hit both in England and America and he also appeared in films and on TV.
