Gerald Home

 

I would like to give BIG thanks to Mr. Home who was kind enough to offer of his time and information to help create this page!  THANK YOU!  To see a great article on Mr. Home and his experiences on the set of ROTJ please go to SWNZ!

Gerald Home was born on October 18, 1950 in Belfast, Northern Ireland, UK.  He lived there with his family until he was sixteen, that's when they moved to Australia.   Home attended Monash University in Australia where he studied for teaching credentials for English as a second language and first started to engage in acting.  After Home graduated from Monash he taught those very subjects in Victoria, Australia, for three years.   

Shortly thereafter Home moved to England where he trained at The Drama Studio in London, after which he starred in plays, including national tours, mime, puppeteering, television and film.   It was his experience with mime and puppeteering that brought him together with people of similar talents.  It was this grouping of performers that was to work on Return of the Jedi.

Many of you may recognize Home as Mr. Muscle from the commercials, of the same name.  An incredibly long run too, 10 years!  The commercials were seen in Europe and beyond.

Home currently resides in Wimbledon, UK and has done many productions there.
