John Reardon (Character)
First MRN Appearance: 0043
Last MRN Appearance: 1565
Performed By: John Reardon
John Reardon, more commonly known around the Neighborhood of Make-Believe as Reardon, is best known for his baritone vocals and elaborate creativity -- both major components of the many operas performed in the Neighbohrood of Make-Believe.
Frequently commissioned by King Friday XIII, Reardon's operas were always entertaining and typically involved many of the neighbors throughout Make-Believe.
Reardon's abilities occasionally stretch beyond the opera scene as he never hesitates to offer a helping hand. For example, he once took over the handyman duties at the castle while Handyman Negri attended the Scout Jamboree.[1]
