Features: This is a Shakespearean play that is deeply loved by the general audience. Bottom's play-within-a-play will have even the worst actors making the audience laugh in delight. The fairy in the stage will surely be a graceful and charming maiden. In addition to the original folk songs, the magnificent lyrics and bizarre plot have inspired later composers to have floods of ideas. The time and place of the Midsummer Night's Dream, filled with magic and charm, also allow stage designers to fully unleash their imagination and apply their skills. The story of the novel is light-hearted, the language is exquisitely beautiful, the character design is well-proportioned, and the concluding blessing is deliberately flattering, which makes one suspect it was specially tailored for the wedding of a noble. However, no historical facts have been found to confirm this speculation. That said, it indeed carries a strong sense of court masquerade. At the same time, experts have discovered that its form has also been influenced by folk Midsummer festivals and May Day celebrations.
