The exotic Orient Express is about to go off the rails! With a train full of suspects and an alibi for each one, it’s the perfect mystery for detective Hercule Poirot, n’est-ce pas? Adapted from Agatha Christie’s masterpiece by two-time Tony-nominated playwright Ken Ludwig (Lend Me a Tenor, Crazy for You), Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express is a funny, fast-paced thrill ride. Director Casey Hushion (Paper Mill’s Clue and A Jolly Holiday) takes the helm.
