Summary

Shakespeare's enduring characters are set adrift in present-day Athens, but a present with a massive difference - An alternative history. Rigid Class systems and 'God given' Monarchies of the past have not been lost. Modern technologies meet ancient tradition; and the citizens of Athens are frustrated by continuing restrictions and hierarchies. Only the forest, home to the fairies and fey spirits can offer the illicit lovers what they seek.
