4.5

The feelings of betrayal and anger are present throughout the entirety of this play. By the end though, you are put through so many twists and turns you no longer know what to think. This play is extremely well written. However, the play does fall victim to some tropes, unnecessary segments, and curious plot holes. However, these minor gripes are not enough to tug the entire play down. This play is fantastic, especially for its time.
