The Ending
Saw this in the Europpean festival and even though I loved it, I'm not sure I understood the ending. I thought it could be seen through different ways: 1) she stops her act, has one last good evening with her sons and walks away from her role as a mother(suicide being a possibility because she couldn't escape her past and could never be enough for her sons). 2)a little earlier in the play, the husband and the wife (Martha) declare war at each other and in the last scene, she implies to the assistant how important she is to her sons, how she is the one who makes it interesting for them and how they she sees herself in them (something like that). Can it be implied that she'll go through the custody battle against her husband after all and keep on trying to convince herself instead of being honest with herself, being the stubborn woman she was?
I don't know what do you think? Am I looking too much into this? :)
