"Too Much, Too Much, Too Many" at the Roundabout's Black Box Theater. through January 5th

Too Much, Too Many

James Rebhorn and Rebecca Henderson

Too Much, Too Much, Too Many is a new play that supplies us with plenty of questions but is apparently satisfied with providing only a few answers. Confounding throughout, but also interesting, it is a play that deals with the loss of a loved one and about how those left behind have chosen to deal with it and with each other. What is seventy-five year-old Rose's (Phyllis Somerville) motivation behind her self-imposed, permanent exile to her bedroom? Surely, there must be more to this move to absolute seclusion than the death of her husband James from drowning. As played in flashback scenes by James Rebhorn, we see how James has suffered from increased dementia associated with Alzheimer's.
