Crewes originated the leading role of "Walter Hartright" in the West End production of The Woman in White (in which he starred from September 2004 to July 2005).
For his horse riding role as "Jim Ryan" in the Australian musical theatre production of The Man from Snowy River: Arena Spectacular, Crewes, who could already ride, was given intensive riding lessons by expert riding teacher Steve Jefferys so that he would not require a body double for the difficult riding feats he had to accomplish in the show. Jefferys also taught Crewes the difficult art of being a horse whisperer. Horse whispering usually takes years to learn, but Crewes was able to master this difficult skill in only two weeks.
From 2011, he originated the role of Pasha/Strelnikov in the Australian premiere of Doctor Zhivago. His performance earned him a nomination for a Helpmann Award.
Following this in 2012, he performed in The Production Company's season of Chess as Frederick "Freddie" Trumper. Directed by Gale Edwards, Chess featured Alinta Chidzey, Bert La Bonte, Mark Dickinson, Michael Falzon, Silvie Paladino and Simon Gleeson. and ran for 10 performances (as standard for The Production Company). Crewes was nominated for a Green Room Award for Actor in a Leading Role, the same category as castmate Simon Gleeson (for Anatoly Sergievsky).
Crewes' television and movie roles include "Luis Amor Rodriguez" in Dream Team, DOA: Dead or Alive as Guy on Boat, and a major role as "Chad Kaplan" in the 2002 film Resident Evil.
