A brief synopsis of A Midsummer Night's Dream
A Midsummer Night's Dream is a Shakespearean comedy revolving around four young lovers—Hermia, Lysander, Helena, and Demetrius—who run away to a magical forest. There, they become entangled in a lovers' quarrel between fairy king Oberon and queen Titania, causing mischievous fairy Puck to misuse a love potion, resulting in chaotic romantic mix-ups.
