Here’s a chance to see a production that’s being staged for the first time since its world premiere last year in New York City. “Secret Hour” tells the tale of how a married couple rolls the dice on unconditional love by engaging in a game where truth bombs can be hurled without consequence. You’ll also learn what role their handyman plays. Deep dives into the complexities of life and relationships are unpacked in a way that are both thoughtful and comical. Following the matinee performances on Saturday and Sunday this weekend, there will be a post-show discussion with playwright Jenny Stafford.

Good Theater’s season-closing production of “A Man of No Importance” is all the more important, as its the company’s final show at The Hill Arts, its home for 21 years. The play is set in mid-’60s Dublin and centers around a middle-aged single man named Alfie Byrne. By day, Byrne is a bus conductor, but he comes alive in the evenings as the head of a local theater troupe. Find out what happens when the church where the theater is based recoils at Byrne’s plan to stage Oscar Wilde’s risque “Salome.”
