Edward Knight (English actor) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edward Knight (English actor) Edward Knight (1774–1826) was an English actor, commonly known as "Little Knight". ==Early life== He was born in Birmingham. While working as a sign-painter or artist, he saw a performance of a provincial company. He appeared onstage at Newcastle, Staffordshire, as Hob in ''Hob in the Well'' (Colley Cibber), but suffered stage-fright and ran off the stage. A year later at Raither in North Wales he got through the same part. Playing Frank Oatland in ''A Cure for the Heartache'' (Thomas Morton) he was seen and engaged by Nunns, the manager of the Stafford Theatre; and he worked in Stafford for some years. Tate Wilkinson, to whom he introduced himself, engaged him for the York circuit around 1803. His reception was favourable. Knight was the author of a musical farce in two acts, entitled ''The Sailor and Soldier, or Fashionable Amusement''. It was produced for his benefit in Kingston upon Hull in 1805.〔
