    A Midsummer Night’s Dream Novel Contrast A Midsummer Night’s Dream was published by William Shakespeare in 1600 and it is still being read today. Shakespeare has a way with his humor where his jokes still seem to make sense and make us laugh today. The jokes that Shakespeare uses‚ not many people can understand‚ I think it is better when the audience sees those jokes played out in the movie because it adds to the humor and understanding of the play in the movie. In 1999‚ Michael Hoffman directed

    the play A Midsummer night’s dream‚ I’m starting to like Shakespeare’s different ideas and how most of his writing and plays involve falling in love and such. This play is mostly about four couples falling in love with the wrong person because they were potioned by a magic fairy in a forest. The setting of this play mostly took place at a forest and the time was night when the play reached its climax.

    elements of A Midsummer Night’s Dream: lovers caught up in misunderstanding and sorrow enhanced by the darkness of night.
