DESCRIPTION
A Midsummer Night's Dream eBook - printable with licence.
• Makes the play enjoyable and accessible to all young people
• Ideal for both study and performance
• Provides an indispensable introduction to Shakespeare
Magic, buffoonery, confusion, transformation - all the elements of this marvellous play are shown to students through brilliant production photographs and a modern narration.
Colour photographs from a variety of productions show the pandemonium created by the dispute between the fairy king and queen and Puck's interference in the mortal world. Bottom's transformation, the lovers' confused pursuit through the woods and the power attributed to a fairy or spirit become much clearer when students can see how others have visualised them.
Two modern narrators provide background information, guide students and clarify events. Their dialogue (clearly marked in the text as not being part of Shakespeare's play) explains, where necessary, things that would not be immediately obvious to present day students - such as Puck's reputation for mischief. They summarise the action and prepare students for what is going to happen, guiding them through the twists and turns of the plot and supporting their understanding of the original text.
There are 5 other plays in the Shorter Shakespeare ebook series:
