This un-abridged fresh take on William Shakespeare's riotous comedy "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is the truest adaption to Shakespeare's original text yet to see the screen. A tale of wonder, magic, love, and mayhem, "A Midsummer Night's Dream" follows the lovers Lysander and Hermia, as they run away to the woods to try and escape the wishes of Hermia's father, Egues, that Hermia shall marry Demetrius. Unbeknownst to Lysander and Hermia, they are followed into the woods by Demetrius, trying to foil their plain, and Helena, trying to win the love of Demetrius. These lovers paths then cross with the fairy King Oberon, and his mischievous servant Puck. Wishing to help these lovers, Oberon dispatches Puck with a love potion. But things do not go as planned, and hilarity ensues.
