A Man of No Importance presented by The Keegan Theatre at Keegan Theatre

A Man of No Importance, with music by Stephen Flaherty, lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and a book by Terrence McNally, based on the 1994 movie by Albert Finney, tells the tender story of Alfie Byrne, a bus driver living in 1960’s Dublin. A passionate fan of Oscar Wilde, Alfie is determined to stage a version of Salome at his church, despite the objections of church authorities. In the process of fighting for the play, Alfie is finally forced to confront his own sexuality and take a stand in the world. To bring this script to life, Keegan has re-assembled the artistic team that brought "RENT" to DC audiences earlier this season: Mark A. Rhea, Aaron Broderick, and Kurt Boehm return as co-director, music director, and choreographer, respectively. Christina A. Coakley, Rhea’s co-director, completes the artistic leadership team for A Man of No Importance.
