A Midsummer Night's Dream Links!
Click HERE for the full text of the play (traditional text only).
For scene overviews when absent, check out the Sparknotes overviews HERE.
For an online version of the No Fear Shakespeare text, click HERE.
Remember, Sparknotes is REALLY good for general overview/major event stuff, but the language is very glossed over and details are lost. Use as a resource support not as a replacement to your readings.
