Think 80s, New York, Bowie…..

Authority in Athens is shaky: Hermia rejects her father's choice, the Duke backs her father, and the Duchess sides with Hermia. Dad's choice, Demetrius, pursues Hermia but is loved by Helena. When Hermia and her lover meet in the Time Square, New York (the city that never sleeps) the next night, Helena tells Demetrius in hopes she can follow and change his mind. Also in the square are unemployed actors preparing a play, plus the fairies: the fairy rulers, Oberon and Titania, are at odds, so Oberon conjures a spell and Titania falls for an actor bewitched with the ears of an ass. Oberon's sprite, Puck, also tries to bring the four young lovers into compatible couples but makes an error before all is right….After all ‘the course of love never did run smooth’
