In Act three of the play A midsummer night’s dream, Shakespeare explores how love creates confusions. In the forest, Puck’s magic brings about many of the most bizarre and hilarious situations in the play. When this Act opens, Oberon orders Puck to put love potion on Titania’s eyes when she falls asleep. After she wakes up, she sees Bottom, who is practicing the play, and falls in love with him simultaneously. She says to Bottom, “What angel wakes me from my flowery bed?” (3.1.113). Because of the

Hoffman 's 1999 film version of A Midsummer Night 's Dream he moves the drama 's action from Athens, Greece to a fictional Italian village named Monte Athena at the change of the nineteenth century.
