Heather Lynn Gray

Heather Lynn Gray has been acting with Mystery's Most Wanted since St. Valentine's Day weekend, 2004, when she fell in love with the fine group of improv/character actors and mad cap adventures that accompany dinner theater.  She has worked with a number of community theaters in the Pittsburgh area and has been awarded the Pittsburgh New Works Festival "Donna" award three times; She won once for originating the role of Eleanor Tiff in Kathy Miller Haines' (MMW's artistic director) play The Fellowship of Actors and Directors.  

Heather received her BA in communications from the University of Pittsburgh, where she was crowned Homecoming Queen in 1997.  She earned her MA in leadership and business ethics from Duquesne University.  Heather is currently an acting instructor with CCAC, an aspiring playwright, a photographer, and a community interpreter for American Sign Language.  She lives in Mt. Lebanon with her husband, step-daughter, and three cats - King Henry, Othello, and Picasso (a valiant start to her "crazy old lady with 100 cats" goal).  

Critical Acclaim: "Heather McNeish is absolutely, hands-down, over-the-top brilliant playing the Mad Hatter. Thank you, Ms. McNeish." -Ted Hoover, Pittsburgh City Paper, 9.13.06
