Description

In this trippy comedy featuring magic, hallucinogenic potions, spiteful gods, pickup artists, hybrid man-animal horrors, and worse wedding entertainment than a Nickelback cover band, the mischievous Puck holds sway over Athens and court of the Fairy King alike. James and Will try to make sense of the chaos of one of Shakespeare’s most original and zaniest plays. // Credits // Intro Music: Jon Sayles, "The Witches' Dance" (composed by anonymous); Outro Music: Jon Sayles, “Saltarello” (composed by anonymous); Illustrative Excerpts: “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” dir. Max Reinhardt (1935); “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” dir. Celia de Wolff (2018)
