Too Little Too Late is the first theatrical venture from the young company, Red Elevator Productions.  Featuring original and premiere short plays from six of the most promising and arresting young writers on the New York theater scene, Too Little Too Late explores the problem of (dis)connect in a complicated world - because in our breakneck lives of over-stimulus media, instant mass communication, restlessness and expectation - how does anyone really connect?
