The world is out of joint. The elven king couple Oberon and Titania are in a relationship dispute. In battle they let their magical powers play and plunge the nature of the forest into magical nocturnal chaos. Two couples in love, who fled into the forest out of their own emotional confusion, get caught between the fronts, as do a group of theater-savvy craftsmen in search of inspiration. How does this world get back on track?

Shakespeare already juggled masterfully in the most famous of all comedies with all emotional and social levels of the human world. Centuries later, the composer Benjamin Britten ventured into the literary genius of his nation in his tenth opera. The plot takes from the Shakespeare comedy what a musical drama needs: mad love full of drama, elven dreams in the kingdom of Oberon, the boozy scenes of the craftsmen, the tragic comedy of a tender fairy queen in drug intoxication with a donkey in love. Desires flaring up from different spheres unintentionally collide on a sultry June night and cause a hopeless mess. The musical language is poetic, mysterious, funny, sometimes drastic and always of outstanding craftsmanship. An instrumentation shimmering in all colors leads into the deep thicket of feelings, into the emotional undergrowth. In the moonlit forest noise, love tragedy stands next to crude parody, before the characters can find their minds and themselves again at the happy ending.

The harmonious weaving of sound in the elven kingdom, the human lovers and the drastic artisan parody lead musically through entire centuries. Britten's Midsummer Night 's Dream is a deep bow from the composer to the greatest poet of his nation, great fun and a mirror of the world in the theater. Between "Pep and Poetry", "Trash and Dream" ( HAZ ), the revival of Michiel Dijkema's staging unfolds its effective stage magic.
