For the theatre spotlight section on the musical ‘A Man of No Importance’. Alfred Byrne is a closeted homosexual bus conductor in 1963 Dublin. When he attempts to put on an amateur production in the local church hall, he confronts the forces of bigotry and shame, but the redemptive power of theatre and friendship elevates him, changing his life for the better.
