A Midsummer Night’s Dream follows the story of lovestruck friends, mischievous fairies and a talking donkey...

When the fairies’ cast their meddling spells, a twist of fate falls upon all those in the forest. Watch the joyful chaos unfold in this hilarious tale of love, friendship, mischief and magic.
