Because this work is a play, there is no single narrative point of view – that is, there is no narrator, or no single storyteller. The action, the story, and the meaning of both are presented to the readers/audience without the explanations or illuminations that would be found in a work of prose. In that sense, it is perhaps accurate to say that the main narrative point of view is that of the reader / audience, who are presented with events and characters and circumstances and are asked to define meaning for themselves.
