Bi planes. What's the point?

I'm on vacation and someone is flying around in a biplane. Got me thinking. Does the additional wing create additional lift? Even so, Doesn't it interfere with the lift the first wing in creating? I know there's triplanes too... I've never seen one with 4... There has to be a point where the weight outweighs the added benefit. Right?
