Machomer is Going to Stratford!

According to this  Stratford Blog entry,  Machomer will be at Stratford this summer.  Aunt Julia will be so pleased.


I'ts been so long since the show appeared at the fringe, 1995 and 1996 (and then it was a fundraiser just before a Fringe, I guess 1997) that a whole generation has grown up not knowing it locally. Rick Miller has been in Toronto for at least a decade, though for a couple of years, he would come back for our little Fringe.  There was one year when he offered up something like $200 as a Multimedia Prize, memory says that didn't work out so well either because it wasn't well defined or there weren't many shows that fit the category.   Things have definitely improved in that area, the days of gratuitous multimedia are in the past.


For some reason, I checked, and there is even a Wikipedia entry for MacHomer
