A Midsummer Night's Dream

A Midsummer Night's Dream

William Shakespeare

In Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, Shakespeare shows how wonderful and silly love can be. To trick Titania into handing over an Indian boy she is raising, Oberon orders Puck to find a plant that causes love at first sight, and through Oberon's meddling and Puck's trickery, the characters fall into and out of love with the wrong people. In the end, Oberon sets things right, and the fiasco of the previous evening becomes nothing more than A Midsummer Night's Dream.
