Ein St.-Johannis-Nachts-Traum by William Shakespeare
"Ein St.-Johannis-Nachts-Traum" by William Shakespeare is a comedy play written in about 1595 or 1596. Set in ancient Athens, the play weaves together multiple plots surrounding the wedding of Duke Theseus and Amazon Queen Hippolyta. Four young Athenian lovers flee into an enchanted forest, where amateur actors rehearse a play and mischievous fairies meddle in human affairs. As the fairy king and queen quarrel over a changeling child, a magical flower causes
chaos, making sleepers fall in love with the first creature they see upon waking. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
