What is the narrator point of view in the play, Crumbs From the Table of Joy?

The play’s narrative point of view is that of its central character and narrator, Ernestine Crump. She speaks directly to the audience, stepping in and out of the action to offer commentary on and / or description of the events that she and the other characters are playing out. It is important to note that for much of the play, Ernestine’s primary function is, in fact, that of narrator. She does not play a particularly active role in the early events of the story, reacting more to events and choices brought into the narrative by Godfrey and Lily. There are glimpses of her story, but she does not really become a central character until some way into the second act.
