Roundabout Theatre Company has announced the cast for the next Roundabout Underground production Too Much, Too Much, Too Many, a new play by Meghan Kennedy, directed by Sheryl Kaller, featuring Rebecca Henderson (Emma), Luke Kirby (Pastor Hidge), James Rebhorn (James), & Phyllis Somerville (Rose).

Too Much, Too Much, Too Many will begin preview performances on October 25 and will open officially on Wednesday, November 20, 2013 at Roundabout's Black Box Theatre, at the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre (111 West 46th Street, NYC, NY, 10036). This is a limited engagement through January 5, 2014.

All tickets for Roundabout Underground productions are $20.

The 62-seat Black Box Theatre, below the Laura Pels Theatre in the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre, allows Roundabout to take artistic risks that are better suited for a more intimate space.

The creative team includes Wilson Chin (Set Design), Jess Goldstein (Costume Design), Zach Blane (Lighting Design) and Broken Chord (Original Music & Sound).

Following the death of her husband (James), Rose (Somerville) locks herself in her bedroom for the better part of a year, leaving her daughter Emma (Henderson) to care for her through the closed door. When the church sends a pastor (Kirby) to help coax Rose out of her room, he soon finds that Rose is not the only one using barriers to hide her true feelings.

Bittersweet, poignant and touchingly funny, Too Much, Too Much, Too Many, a compelling new drama by Meghan Kennedy, is about the walls we build to protect our hearts--and deciding when it's time to break them down.

Too Much, Too Much, Too Many launches the seventh season of Roundabout Underground, an initiative to showcase new plays that will either allow an experienced director to go back to his/her creative roots or give a debut production to an emerging writer or director. Prior productions include the acclaimed world premieres of Stephen Karam's Speech & Debate (2007), Steven Levenson's The Language of Trees (2008), Adam Gwon's Ordinary Days (2009), Kim Rosenstock's Tigers Be Still (2010), David West Read's The Dream of the Burning Boy (2011), Andrew Hinderaker's Suicide, Incorporated (2011), Joshua Harmon's Bad Jews (2012).

This fall, Bad Jews has made an unprecedented move upstairs to the 420 seat Laura Pels Theatre while Too Much, Too Much, Too Many premieres in the Black Box downstairs.

Tickets are available by calling Roundabout Audience Services at (212)719-1300, online at www.roundabouttheatre.org or at the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre box office (111 West 46 Street). The ticket price is $20.00 for all seats.

All tickets for Too Much, Too Much, Too Many are General Admission and seating is first-come, first-served.

Too Much, Too Much, Too Many will play Tuesday through Sunday evenings at 7:00PM with Saturday and Sunday matinees at 1:30PM.

The Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre reflects Roundabout's commitment to produce new works by established and emerging writers as well as revivals of classic plays. This state-of-the-art off-Broadway theatre and education complex is made possible by a major gift from The Harold and Mimi Steinberg Charitable Trust. The Trust was created in 1986 by Harold Steinberg to promote and advance American Theatre as a vital part of our culture by supporting playwrights, encouraging the development and production of new work, and providing financial assistance to theatre companies across the country. Since its inception, the Trust has awarded over $45 million to more than 100 not-for-profit theatre organizations.

Roundabout Underground's home is a 62-seat Black Box Theatre, which is also used year-round by Roundabout's education department for its activities including student productions and professional development workshops.
