Ein St.-Johannis-Nachts-Traum

In the bustling heart of Athens, Duke Theseus prepares for his upcoming wedding to the Amazon queen Hippolyta, while the city buzzes with the promise of revelry. A stern father, Egeus, demands that his daughter Hermia obey his wish to marry the noble Demetrius, yet Hermia’s heart belongs to the passionate Lysander. Defiant and determined, the young lovers plot a midnight escape into the woods, hoping to evade the law and follow their own desires.

Beyond the city’s walls, an enchanted forest awakens under the watch of its fairy rulers. Oberon, king of the sprites, and his queen Titania are locked in a subtle rivalry, and their mischievous servant Puck roams the moonlit glades, ready to stir trouble. The stage is set for a night where mortal wishes and magical whims will meet, promising a blend of comedy, romance, and the unpredictable charm of the unseen.
