As well as being one of the most recognisable actors, Simon Callow is an accomplished author and journalist. Drawing on a lifetime of writing about theatre and film, this autobiography takes us behind the curtain and behind the camera to introduce us to the performers and performances that have shaped him as an actor and as a public persona.
