A Midsummer's Night Dream
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare is a play that mainly revolves around two important things, mischief and love. Puck, one of the main characters is very mischievous with the other characters in the play. One group Puck is mischievous towards are the mechanicals. Puck turns Bottom into an ass. He also interacted with the fairies. He made Titania fall in love with Bottom, and as to the young lovers Puck made Helena think she was being mocked. Puck and his mischief are integral to the development of the plot in the play by interacting with these three groups of people.
Pucks mischief helps the development of the plot in the play when he reflects his bad behaviour on the mechanicals. Puck put a spell on the cast to move them and to keep them running from the forest. His dissatisfaction with the play made him think that he could do a much better acting job than them. Puck says “What a play toward! I’ll be an auditor;/ an actor too perhaps, if I see cause.” (III, ii, 28) This shows that Puck feels that he could be a much better actor than the people here. He was very disappointed with the terrible acting jobs done and so he decided to punish them. He put a spell on every single one of the Mechanicals to move them from the forest except for Bottom.
Puck turned Bottom into a donkey; the cast got scared and ran away. He was not amused or impressed by Bottoms attitude so that’s why he put a spell on him and made him have a head of an ass. Just as Bottom returned for his scene, Quince shouted out “O monstrous! O strange! We are hunted. Pray, masters! Fly, masters! Help!” (III, i, 28) because he was so scared of the creature. Then the cast members got frightened and ran away as fast as they could.
Puck casts a spell on every member of the cast to make them think that they are being chased through the forest by some creature. “I’ll follow you, I’ll lead you about a round,/ Through bog, through bush, through brake, through
