Feature: A Man of No Importance in Long Beach Post

“As its title suggests, “A Man of No Importance” — beginning a three-week run this weekend at the Long Beach Landmark Theatre — is not a flashy musical, but it portrays profound depths” writes theatre writer Anita W. Harris.

“In trying to persuade them otherwise, Alfie has imaginary conversations with the flamboyant Wilde and becomes emboldened to reveal more of himself, risking consequences both physical and emotional.”

“Curtis Heard, music director of the theater, is conducting a live orchestra for the show’s Irish-inflected score. And a cast of nearly 20 will bring the play to life — directed and choreographed by artistic director Megan O’Toole, who will also play the role of Mrs. Patrick.”

“With a church conflict at the center of “A Man of No Importance,” the setting is not only fitting, but makes it more metatheatrical — a play staged in a church about staging a play in a church.”
