Presents a dramatization of William Shakespeare's play about devilish fairies, bedeviled lovers and tradesmen-actors. Plots intertwine as entangled love affairs, the comical performance of a "play within a play" by the tradesmen of Athens, and the antics in fairyland among King Oberon and his queen Titania produce a bizarre series of entanglements, but all ends happily.

Some of these characters briefly discard the roles they've played in life, while others adopt new ones. In the end, they all learn something about themselves."--Booklet...
