Local Limelight: Actor Kelly Rardon on Murder On The Orient Express at Just Off Broadway and Other Theatre Experiences

The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances! That feels a little like any given week of theatre in the Baltimore area theatre scene!
