The first act in scene one was about Theseus and Hippolyta who were getting married and how Theseus felt like the four days before they were getting married seemed like it was taking forever.When Egeus tries to pursue her daughter Hermia to get married to Demetrius but Hermia is in love with Lysander who is also in love with her also. The problem is that Egeus thinks that Lysander is a player and is pretending to love her. Hermia has to make a decision either to marry Demetrius who is not in love with, become a nun or be killed. After everybody else left Hermia and Lysander planned to sneak out the next night and run away to his aunts house and meet at the woods where they can get married and live happyily after ever. When they tell Helena there news meanwhile Hermia thinks that Helena is a good friend Helena is deciding to tell Demetrius Hermia and Lysander's plans so he could run out looking for her and when he gives up looking for her he'll come back to her thanking her and will eventually fall in love with her.
The second act in scene two was about these actors doing a craftsman play for Theseus wedding .They each had to figure out who's part was going to be who.
