Leahanne Mackay as Becca

Leahanne is excited to be on stage for her third role with KTG as Becca Rollins in Gibson and Sons.  She feels that her quirky, sometimes awkward, personality naturally lends itself to the role and is excited to bring Becca to life on stage.  Her previous roles include Madame De La Grande Bouche in Beauty and the Beast and Zoe Telford in Curse of the Silver Pharaoh. Leahanne job shadowed director Andy for this show in anticipation of her directorial debut next year.

She created and directed our two blacklight shows; wrote, directed and performed in our one act mini-musical Canajun, Eh?; co-produced and sang in last summer’s variety show; and was Stage Manager for our most recent production, Beauty and the Beast.

Rachel Eby as Katya

Born and raised in Kincardine, Rachel has always been fascinated with theatre productions. She joined the Kincardine Theatre Guild in 2023 for her debut production as part of the ensemble for Beauty and the Beast. Rachel knew that wasn’t the last of her KTG experiences as she auditioned for Gibson and Sons and was offered her first speaking role as Katya. Rachel is looking forward to performance nights and hopes that you will join the adventure as well!

Kristina Meisenheimer as Eva

Stepping into the character of Eva in Gibson and Sons, Kristina joyfully embraces her fourth play and third speaking role with the Kincardine Theatre Guild. In each production she not only finds happiness on stage but also cherishes the opportunity to cultivate new lasting friendships. Kristina emphasizes the theatre’s inclusive nature, extending a warm invitation for anyone interested in volunteering, whether it be on the stage or behind the scenes.

Andrew is a first time actor, though he has a always had a love for the dramatic arts. Moving to Kincardine in 2010, he’s loved being a part of the community.
