Synopsis

William Shakespeare's classic comedy unfolds fast and furiously in this abridged one-act version, trimmed to the story's very essence.

When Hermia and Lysander decide to elope, Demetrius, who is also in love with Hermia, follows with his girlfriend, Helena.

But a magical interference by the king and queen of the fairies results in hysterical mixed-up pairings.

In the end, all the couples are brought back together for a happy ending, complete with a final performance by Peter Quince and his company of players.
