Roberts with Ian Manners, spellbound lovers find themselves double-crossed by mischievous fairies
who prove that no one, even Bottom and his rude mechanicals, is safe from the madness of love. One
of Shakespeare.s most well-known plays, A Midsummer Night's Dream's story of tradesmen
moonlighting as actors, disgruntled queens, rebellious suitors and unruly fairies has become an
archetypal romantic comedy that will delight lovers and families of all ages. Zilker Park provides
an enchanting setting to watch the young lovers frantically pursue each other through the Athenian
forest while Puck and the fairies magically bewitch everyone from the lowliest mechanical to the
powerful Titania.
