in a hilarious performance of Shakespeare’s Mac-
beth.
Rick Miller’s spot-on impressions of characters
from the hit series populate this imaginatively staged
version of the tragedy, a multi-media update truly
“full of sound and fury”.
The result is that rare jewel: an educational and en-
tertaining show, which has amazed audiences of all
ages, backgrounds and languages.
Conceived as a Macbeth cast party sketch in 1994,
Miller’s MacHomer has been on tour for more than
a decade and has been seen by over half a million
people in 130 cities worldwide.
In 2005, to celebrate its 10th anniversary, MacHomer
was completely revamped, featuring new songs, new
characters and enhanced sound and video design. Contributed
