Hermia is promised as a wife by her father Demetrius. If she disobeys, death awaits her. But Hermia protests: she loves Lysander and he loves her too. After all, Demetrius was courting another until recently: Helena, who still fights for his favor. Meanwhile, in the forest, the fairy king Oberon struggles with his wife Titania, a group of craftsmen tries to rehearse a play, and in the attempt to conjure the solution to everything, Puck causes even more (mis)fortune.

Behind Shakespeare's "Ein Sommernachtstraum" lies not only a witty comedy and an enchanted fairy tale that can be performed in a timeless manner. The play also contains motifs, actions, and statements that polarize in current debates in our society.

Director Jan Friedrich returns to Schauburg after "Frühlings Erwachen" and "Die Verwandlung" with this production, raising questions about the "how" in the current mindfulness debate. What discourses are we having and which ones should we be having? And how does art relate to all of this? What can take the stage, what should, what must, and what should not?
