litany, liturgy (nn.)
A litany is a prayer containing various invocations or, in its more generalized sense, any long, repetitive recitation or list, often pejorative because boring to hear, as in The old man whined out a well-rehearsed litany of grievances against his family.
A liturgy, sometimes capitalized, especially in reference to the Christian Eucharist, is a religious rite or a collection of them for use in public worship.
Even before her departure, Caden has begun suffering from a litany of physical maladies as well as the realization that his direction of others’ plays doesn’t allow him room for personal expression.
At least Adele’s trip would seem to open the door to Caden’s consummation of a strong attraction between him and comely box office worker Hazel (a curly-red-haired Samantha Morton), who, in one early indication of oddities to come, purchases and soon occupies a house that’s burning and full of smoke.
