This is the play I cannot forget ever..I cannot the dreamy feelings I had while i reading it for the first time..then I was a child..but still today whenever I feel low or deppressed I always open up this book..reading it in the soothing candlelight will definitely heal you always😊😊 Thanks a lot Ted Ed..for choosing this play and for sharing the magic of this play with the world..you guys are amazing😊😊

I seen versions of Midsummer Night Dream that are high Comedy. I seen a version that was much darker with the Fairies being almost Horror Monsters. It a wonderful play and every different performance has a different take on it. This make each time you see a different group do the play , it feels like it a new story.

I just finished reading the play in English class today, crazy you guys just uploaded it today

TED Ed, please do for "Much Ado About Nothing" "As You Like It" "The Merchant of Venice".

the animation is so... relaxing.

THANK YOU for having the characters be dressed as Ancient Greeks! Everyone dressed them in Elizabethan costumes and up. They always forget that it takes place in Ancient Greece.

This is amazing food for thought, thank you! Not to mention the engrossing animation

I remember reading this for English Literature a few years ago. Just today we were discussing about our school play, and we wanted to do Shakespeare. Macbeth was off limits as the Y11s are doing it for school and they would kill us, so I suggested A Midsummer Nights Dream. Feels so apt since it's one of the most hilarious Shakespeare plays. Although Taming of the Shrew is also hilarious.

My favorite part is still the one where the characters roasting the troupes play. I believe that's Shakespeare way to poke fun at his audience who comments or roasted his play when they watched it

It never fails to amaze me how splendid the animations at ted ed are.... Just too good, magical even

The story telling and of course the animation is simply magically beautiful..i couldn't take my eyes away even for a second the whole time..

i love it on how TED-ed improves their animations, designs and how they retell the story or facts

This would’ve made reading this in class easier. Most of my class didn’t get it, and I got more out of this video than that whole semester. Thanks Ted Ed!

Bravo 🙌 thanks Ted Ed for providing such a beautifully way of explaining that story! I've only watched the play at an outdoor park in Los Feliz, Los Angeles CA maybe 5 years ago and I've attempted reading the story soon after seeing the performance. Neither those experiences awakened any clarity of appreciating this Shakespeare piece as y'all have done. Bravo and I look forward to more of these videos 💛

Wonderful breakdown of an amazing play.

Midsummer Night's Dream is my all time favorite play by Billy Shakespeare.🤩👍🎬🌺

i knew i love ted ed not only for the good animation but the narration and content itself

I really don't get how you guys keep offering different astonishing animation styles.. And topics ofc. For someone who's always dreamed to be a designer like me this channel is like a dream.

These are so much more informative than the half-hearted lectures than my English teacher gives. Keep it up TED ED!!!

Thankyou this was so on time!!!! I’m doing a play on this!! Tysm

Well, I'm sold. Thank you for making my uni reading more enjoyable this semester.

one of the best shakespeare works, in my opinion. there are many subpar plays written by him that i’m not personally a fan of, but midsummer night’s dream is a true treat to watch on the stage.

Stunning animation, as if it was a dream, well done.

We had to read and to watch this at school and I loved it! Definitely, it's a great play and I'd certainly recommend reading it.

this is the only video i got on youtube which explained the whole story without any spoilers. thank you so much TED Ed

Wonderful! I love these videos! Yes, I did read "Dream" first, in High School (on my own, by the way!) and then saw it when a friend appeared in it on stage. It plays like an episode of "Bewitched" by way of Greek Mythology.

Loving this kind of stuff TedEd. I'll keep coming back for more! 💕

@@geralferald Yes, Shakespeare is very hard to read. And English is not even my native language, so it is even more hard for me to read. But if you watch a summary of the plays with quotes and stuff, then you get to understand his plays more. And if you watch a play instead of just reading it, it also helps you to understand it more. If you get his plays though, they are something wonderful to read.

then what about hamlet?

This new series has given me a new reason to wake up in the morning.

I've been reading the play script since I was a girl, but now the confusion theme has made me enlightened on what the story really means. Such a profound work.

Narrator and animation mesh beautifully. So enjoyable, more!

I love these series. Some of the recommendations are a surprise. Books that I have never heard or read anything about them, wich is perfect because I like to read all types of books.

love the art style

great animation this is one thing which no one is best as ted ed

I just finished A Midsummer Night's Dream! Loved it. Thanks Ted-Ed

I started to read the play after I finished reading Macbeth, but then stopped for some reason. Today I was trying to search for motivation to read, thanks for this video Ted Ed. Always amazing animations and story telling, keep it up

I’m gonna be in this play very soon! I’m really excited.

I think I'm in love ... with the narrator here ... and many thanks for an excellent presentation!

Dear Madam, you have amazingly narrated the essence of the marvellous play by the bard of Avon, it is fantabulously soothing to hear and comprehend.

Read it just now and loved it. What a delight to follow that with this video!

Please do Hamlet next. I am doing it right now.🙏

The animation here is gorgeous

I love this series so much, keep it up

this has been my favourite Shakespeare play since 5th grade💕

I adored this book as a little girl... in almost 10 years, I have never forgot dancing down the road of the unstable emotion, led by Shakespeare's hand into the very heart of his imagination, being the 'book-hidden' spectator of such strange and hushed events and amused by the awkward humor of such atypical conversations and insults.

I remember performing this play 😪 good times

Before I ever heard of this book I actually thought of the last quote saying that dreams are reality and reality is a dream . Its good to know that others have thought of this

Love this type of vid, thank you!

I definitely want to read this one. I love Shakespearean plays

I had to perform this play last year with school. It's a fun one

I love these videos!

The animation is magical

Incredible motion graphics!

This is one of my favorite plays by Shakespeare

I searched for this and your video pops up we're actually doing this play in our college after a few days it gonna be fun!

I love A Midsummer's Night's Dream. It's my favorite of all his plays I have read. I still have the copy I bought for my English class back in college. As part of the class, with had to perform a scene from one of the plays we've read. I did Bottom, after he had awoke from his night in the woods.

my batch had a play on that i can say this is very intriguing and it really showcased the era of literature

I haven't had the experience to read a single Shakespeare play and yet now Ted-ed had had me interested to read all of them.

Another gorgeous animation.

Im reading this in my 8th grade english class ,and boy is it full of tea.

My favorite play of Shakespeare 💜 And this narrators voice and accent is a dream

I played the part where Puck tricks everyone with his cleverness in 8th grade. He was my favorite. I also feel bad Helena would always be chasing ppl that don’t like her back

For 5 minutes I was in a completely different world!

OMG THIS IS BEAUTIFULLLL 😭😭 For another video can you guys do mythology like Kotan Utannai I'd love to see that animated

“We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep.” Really life is but a dream...

I read this story in 8th grade and at that time, it didn't felt like a dream or too amazing. But now, it feels like magic.

just finished reading this a week before and you uploaded it . well, it's hard for anyone to tell people the story of this. ☺️☺️☺️

This is officially my favorite Shakespeare Ted talk video. ❤ It's seem like I already now the ehole story before I even get the chance to read in for English class! 🎉

Man the animation is just overwhelming

Totally love this 👍👍👍👍👍

It’s still so pretty just like I remember ❤️

I am gonna read this book straight away. It is so appealing at least to me.
