“What a treat to see a brand new theatre company present such a fine opening show…

…This creative team is a marriage made in heaven, and with Janet Miller as director who brings warmth, care and love to this production, it could not get any better. The Lillian stage is so expansive, but is perfect for the staging of this show, as it’s not the sets that matter, but the actors creating art up front. They make magic via Miller’s efficient and expertly conveyed staging, ulitizing every crook and cranny of the vast space.

…As to the cast, what a dream! Do not miss A Man of No Importance! If you’re seeking a piece with heart and soul and a touch of pure Irish lyricism, its rollicking sense of humor and untethered simplistic beauty will take your breath away. This is by far one of my favorite productions so far this year! Bravo to Janet Miller and to everyone...

“…Creative Director of Good People Theatre Company, Janet Miller, is in it for the love of theatre. Her initial production beams with the dedication of the cast in the rustic Lillian Theatre that doubles for the community room at Dublin’s St. Imelda’s Catholic Church….

“…This impressive initial offering by Good People is a signature for strong productions to come. Professional from first to last, those who love the Irish and know McNally’s strong characters will find this one endearing.”
