The Play
 
Written by William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream is believed to have been written between 1590 and 1596. It portrays the events surrounding the marriage of the Duke of Athens, Theseus, and the Queen of the Amazons, Hippolyta. These include the adventures of four young Athenian lovers and a group of amateur actors, who are manipulated by the fairies who inhabit the forest in which most of the play is set. The play is one of Shakespeare's most popular works for the stage and is widely performed across the world. This version of the play has been adapted and contextualized within the north eastern part of the country and has been produced by the Art & Culture Department, Government of Mizoram.
