By William Shakespeare
In what is perhaps the Bard's best-known comedy, two sets of ingénues, plus a ragtag group of blue-collar workers, stumble headlong into the middle of magical spat. Almost all humans in the vicinity become hilarious casualties of the supernatural war between Oberon and Titania, the king and queen of the fairies. The world of the play itself is turned upside-down as Shakespeare weaves an unforgettable tale of misplaced affection, supernatural mischief, and compounding happy endings. A Midsummer Night's Dream is an ode to love, nature, loyalty, and the sheer magic of words.
