... Shakespeare Essay: Explore the theme of Appearance and Reality in A Midsummer Night's Dream In A Midsummer Nights Dream the theme of appearance and reality is a key theme. In the play everyone seems to confuse appearance and reality at one point. This means they confuse what is real with what is not real. The title itself is a sign of the confusion to come. 'Dream' gives the idea that it is all going to be a bit confusing and hazy. It also indicates that however terrible it may be, everything will be fine at the end. 'A Midsummer Night' was an Elizabethan festival, linked with mayhem and chaos. The settings of the play are quickly separated, Athens and the woods. Athens is the place of order and reality. The Woods is the place of magic and illusion. The thought of illusion is emphasised, as the play itself is an illusion
