A midsummer night's dream - an adaptation for children

The main plot of The Dream is a farce that involves two sets of Athenian couples (Hermia & Lysander and Helena & Demetrius) whose romantic schemings are brought to a head when entering the forest where Oberon the King of the Fairies and his Queen Titania are resident. Puck is a major character who is full of mischief and tricks. Other visitors to the enchanted forest include Bottom the weaver and his friends Snug Snout Quince and Flute who want to rehearse their dire but hilarious rendering of the play for wedding climax. Geof Walker retired headteacher produced Shakespeare comedies at his school to great effect and decided to turn the success into scripts available for others. Here is the recently revised script of The Dream.
