The production of A Midsummer Nights Dream, is typically set in the late 19th century. This is the time period that it was originally set in and therefore most people still use it. When using this time period, thinking about the use of costumes and sets is infinitive. The set has to be made to fit both the realistic world of the Mortals as well as the fantasy world of the Faerie Gods. The time of the play as far as year, is not so much important as the fact that it is set on midsummer night. The festival must be apparent in te plays production
