    Summary

    Based on the version of A Midsummer Night's Dream that played at The Bridge Theatre, London during summer 2019 (later streamed to cinemas by the National Theatre), this piece reverses the roles of Oberon and Titania. Further, both royals are overtly Duke Theseus and Queen Hippolyta visiting the forest in dreams.

    This piece begins at Bottom's 'translation' (and fills in a few scenes hinted-at by the Bard and the Bridge Director).

    All words in italic were spoken in the play (some by Shakespeare; some …. maybe not!)
