I was quite surprised at how well structured the play is and how effectively it builds to a catharsis. I suppose you could view it as a lecture but there are characters and those characters discover things and grow through the course of the play. I really loved the struggle between cynicism and hope toward the constitution... and the way the play ends on a quiet note of hope.

I was particularly taken with the way Schreck entwined the history of violence against the women in her family and the history/development of the constitution. And the idea of "two mothers" and how that idea is mirrored in her love/hate of the constitution. |
