A Man of No Importance tells the heartfelt story of Alfie Byrne, a bus driver and amateur theatre director in 1964 Dublin who holds a secret that could change his life and relationships forever. The only person he has to confide in is his imaginary friend Oscar Wilde. When Alfie wants to put on a production of Salome, he is met with pushback from religious authorities and is forced to grapple with the shame he feels over a love “that dare not speak its name”. In an extremely heartfelt moment of the show, our main character Alfie is trying to convince his friend and newcomer to the theatre troupe Adele to play the lead role of Salome in his upcoming production of the same name. Hesitant at first, Adele sings of not believing she can play the lead. But after a little convincing, Adele agrees to be the “Princess” Alfie knows she can be.
