Narrator:

In Ancient Greece there is a girl named Hermia who loves a young man Lysander. However, her father says she must marry Demetrius but she does not want to. She and Lysander escape to a forest.

Helena is Hermia’s friend and loves Demetrius.

Helena and Demetrius also run away to the forest. Soon, they get tired and they fall asleep under the trees.

In the forest, there is Nick Bottom, an actor and his group, who are putting on a play. Farther through the forest the queen of fairies Titania is arguing with her husband, Oberon who is very angry with her. So, he sends Puck, the playful sprite, to bring the juice from the love flower to make her love him again.

Puck:

Ha, ha! I’ll play a trick on all these people! I’ll turn this man to a donkey. Abracadabra! You, Nick Bottom, are a donkey! (Nick becomes a donkey)

Oberon: (angrily)

Give me the magic juice. I’ll put some of it in Titania’s eyes myself. When she wakes up, she will fall in love with the first one she sees. This will be me.
