Phantom Projects Theatre Group, which brings live theatre to Southern California Audiences through a series at its home base at The La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts, has announced its 16th Season, featuring a timeless classic and after a 6 year absence, the Southern California return of Rick Miller and his one-man show, MacHomer: The Simpsons Do Macbeth

2011/2012 SEASON AT LA MIRADA THEATRE:

November 30, 2011: The Crucible
Written by Arthur Miller Directed by Janet Miller
Arthur Miller's timeless tragedy of a young girl whose accusations against innocent townspeople hold an entire community hostage. Inspired by the McCarthy hearings and based on the Salem witch trials of 1692, this exciting drama about the Puritan purge of witchcraft in old Salem is both a gripping historical play and a timely parable of our contemporary society.

His First Southern California Appearance in 6 years!
February 16, 2012: MacHomer
Adapted from William Shakespeare's Macbeth and The Simpsons created by Matt Groening
Created & Performed by Rick Miller
Imagine Shakespeare's Macbeth, a bloody tale of greed, envy, murder and retribution interpreted by none other than television's supreme anti-heroes of irreverence The Simpsons. That is exactly what Rick Miller does in his incredible work, MacHomer. In this awe inspiring, energetic, incredibly hilarious performance, picture Homer Simpson as the Scottish traitor, Marge as Lady Macbeth, Mr. Burns as the doomed King

Duncan and Moe the Bartender as Witch #2. MacHomer has amazed audiences of all ages, backgrounds and languages. A hilarious one-man show you have to see to believe!
