2.5

I will admit I struggled quite a bit while reading this. I don't know if it's the play itself or the translation I read but I just felt the language to be very hard to get and the story hard to connect with. After discussing it in class I do have a greater appreciation for it, which bumps it up to 2.5, so I might give it a go in a different translation in the future.
