A Man of No Importance

By McNally, Ahrens, and Flaherty

Directed by Ro Gavin

 

The story of Alfie Byrne, a bus conductor in 1964 Dublin whose heart holds secrets that he can't share with anyone but his imagined confidante, Oscar Wilde. This tender story of family, friendship and acceptance teaches us that it really is a wonderful thing to "love who you love."

Our theatre is located on N’dakinna, the traditional ancestral homeland of the Abenaki, Pennacook and Wabanaki Peoples past and present.

We acknowledge and honor with gratitude the land and waterways and those who have stewarded N’dakinna throughout the generations.
