Description

The comedy is set in Athens and revolves around the Duke of Athens, Theseus, and his forthcoming marriage to Hippolyta. However, the play is not simply a love story. It is also a story about the clash between two different worlds: the world of the court and the world of the forest. In the Forest, we find Oberon and Titania, the King and Queen of the Fairies. This recording features Edit Nesbit's adaptation of the Shakespeare's comedy. Read in English, unabridged.

Author

William Shakespeare (1564–1616) remains the centre of English-language drama: poet, player, and shareholder of the Globe. Tragedy, comedy, and history still turn on his lines. Interactive Media publishes the plays as reading and listening editions for a worldwide audience.
