Welcome to the fifth episode of the Play On Podcasts Series A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Synopsis:
Oberon takes pity on Titania and orders Puck to wake her from her reverie. The Fairy King and Queen are united in rekindled love, and balance is restored at last. The next morning, Theseus and Hippolyta, now happily united and embarking on a hunt, stumble upon the sleeping lovers in the forest. In their embarrassment, they realize they are each with their rightful partner. Theseus refuses to enforce the punishment Egeus demands for his daughter Hermia, and all three happy couples go to Theseus’s court to celebrate their nuptials. Meanwhile, Bottom wakes from her spell and marvels at her dream, vowing to turn it into a play written by Peter Quince, who she finds with all the other players back in town. Celebrating Bottom’s return, the players learn that their play has made it to the final round of selection for performance at Theseus’s palace.
