Heath is thrilled to be returning to the BSP stage as Herb Tucker (a role he has wanted to play since the ripe age of 9 when he first saw the film adaptation). Heath has previously appeared on the BSP stage as Mr. Boddy in Clue: The Musical and as Edward Baxter in Psych, and he recently was a member of the ensemble cast for Owens Community College's production of The Laramie Project: Ten Years Later. Heath also is very active as a director, having recently served in that role for BSP’s production of Talking With and TBD Productions’ The Guys. Other directorial credits include The Odd Couple (Female Version) (BSP), The Drowsy Chaperone (BSP), A Mouth to Feed (Toledo Rep), and Gidion's Knot (TBD Productions). Heath is slated to direct August: Osage County for BSP in February. When Heath is not treading the boards, he serves as Board President for both Black Swamp Players and Wood County Humane Society. He also is Teaching Professor in the Honors College and the Department of English at BGSU. In his spare time, he loves spending time with his husband Gary and their six rescue kitties, doing jigsaw puzzles, painting by numbers, and watching international crime dramas.
