Further casting announced for A MAN OF NO IMPORTANCE at CSC

Additional casting has been announced for Classic Stage Company's production of A Man of No Importance, which begins performances from 11 October, running through until 4 December.

Classic Stage Company previously announced Jim Parsons will be starring in the production. Joining him will be Alma Cuervo, Kara Mikula, Mary Beth Peil, Thom Sesma, A.J. Shively, Nathaniel Stampley, Jessica Tyler Wright, and Joel Waggoner. Additional casting will be announced shortly.

A Man of No Importance features a book by Terrence McNally, music by Stephen Flaherty, and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens.

The show tells the story of an amateur theatre group in 1960s Dublin and their leader, bus driver Alfie Byrne (Jim Parsons). Determined to stage a production of Oscar Wilde’s Salome despite the objections of local church authorities, Alfie confronts the forces of bigotry and shame over a love "that dare not speak its name.”
