WASHINGTON, PA (Nov. 21, 2011)—An award-winning theatre actor called “one of the 100 most creative people alive today” by Entertainment Weekly, Rick Miller presents MacHomer at Washington & Jefferson College’s Olin Fine Arts Center Tuesday, Nov. 29, at 7:30 p.m.

This one-man vocal spectacular features impressions of more than 50 voices from TV’s “The Simpsons” in a hilarious performance of Shakespeare’s MacBeth! Impressions of characters from the hit series populate this imaginatively staged version of the tragedy. The result is an educational and entertaining show, which has amazed audiences of all ages, backgrounds and languages.

With a script that remains 85 percent Shakespeare, MacHomer will leave you “exhausted with laughter,” according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. The Boston Globe added, "Wildly imaginative…Miller is a gifted mimic!"

Miller has performed MacHomer to capacity crowds across Canada, the United States, the UK, Australia and New Zealand. Join the half a million Simpsons/Shakespeare fans who have made MacHomer one of the world's biggest little hits.
