A Midsummer Night’s Dream is one of Shakespeare’s most widely studied comedies. This guide offers students an introduction to its critical and performance history, including notable stage productions, TV and film versions as well as opera and ballet. It includes a keynote chapter outlining major areas of current research on the play and four new critical essays. Finally, a guide to critical, web-based and production-related resources and an annotated bibliography provide a basis for further individual research.
