Written around 1595-96, A Midsummer Night’s Dream is one of Shakespeare’s most beloved and frequently performed comedies. Four young Athenian lovers flee into an enchanted forest, where they become entangled in the feuding world of Oberon and Titania, King and Queen of the Fairies, and the mischievous sprite Puck intervenes with hilariously disruptive magic.
The play’s celebration of imagination, desire, and the transforming power of dreams has made it a perennial favorite on stage and in the classroom. Download this free EPUB from Better Gutenberg and let Shakespeare’s most magical comedy cast its spell on you.
