Description

William Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream is a romantic comedy where both mortals and enchanted creatures deal with romantic problems.

Among the flesh-and-blood crowd, Duke Theseus is preparing for his wedding to Hippolyta, while having to counsel Egeus who has promised the hand of his daughter Hermia to Demetrius. Hermia, however, wants to elope with her true love, Lysander, while her best friend Helena is mad about Demetrius.

Meanwhile, fairies living in the forest watch these romantic misadventures. Puck serves up love potions that mix and match the already confused lovers, while the Queen of Fairies, Titania, and her King, Oberon, have to deal with a group of hapless actors rehearsing a play in the forest - one of whom, Bottom, has fallen under Puck's spell and becomes Titania's new lover.
Will anyone end up with the person they really love?
