A Man of No Importance

Alfie Byrne is a bus conductor in 1964 Dublin whose heart holds secrets that he can't share with anyone but his imagined confidante, Oscar Wilde. When he attempts to put on an amateur production of Wilde's Salome in the local church hall, he confronts the forces of bigotry and shame over a love "that dare not speak its name." But the redemptive power of theatre changes his life and brings his friends back to his side.

Directed by Julia Arbutus, based on the 1994 Albert Finney film, with music by Stephen Flaherty, lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and book by Terrence McNally.
