A midsummer nights dream.....
Hermia is Egeus daughter. He has commanded her to marry Demetrius, but she loves Lysander who loves her back. Demetrius on the other hand loves Hermia, but used to love Helena and Helena is in love with Demetrius. Hermia doesn’t want to marry Demetrius so she and Lysander decides to leave Athens. Hermia tells Helena about the escape and she tells Demetrius. As it was decided, Hermia and Lysander escape to the forest, which is the home of the fairies, and Demetrius and Helena are close behind. The fairy King and Queen have been fighting. The king begs Puck, a little fairy, to pick a magic love flower whose drops makes a person fall in love with whichever creature she sees. Oberon, the king, tells Puck to drip drops of the flower on Demetrius eyeslids when Helena is around, but Puck accidentally drips the drops in Lysanders eyes. The first person that Lysander sees is Helena, and he falls in love with her and forget all about Hermia. At the same time Titania, the queen, has been given these magical drops as well. When she wakes up, the first thing she sees is Bottom, a craftsman who Puck bewitched with a donkey head, and she falls in love with him. Oberon think this game is funny, until he hears that Puck mixed up Lysander with Demetrius. He gets mad, it’s supposed to be Demetrius who’s in love with Helena! He himself makes sure that Demetrius gets the love potion and that Helena is the first think he sees. Now both guys loves Helena, and she feels trapped in the middle of them. Finally Oberon decides that he has to make everything alright. He puts all four lovers to sleep and gives Lysander the antidote so that he will love Hermia again when he wakes up. He also gives the antidote to Titania, and the royal couple get together again. When Demetrius, Lysander, Hermia and Helena wakes up again in the woods, they just think that they had a strange dream and returns to Athens. The wedding, who was supposed to be between Hermia and Demetrius, now becomes a three couple wedding and everyone ends up living happily ever after.
