Le songe d'une nuit d'été ("A Midsummer Night's Dream") is an opéra-comique in three acts composed by Ambroise Thomas to a French libretto by Joseph-Bernard Rosier and Adolphe de Leuven.
 Although it shares the French title for Shakespeare's play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream", its plot is not based on the play.
 Shakespeare himself is a character in the opera as are Elizabeth I and Falstaff.
In the First Folio, the plays of William Shakespeare were grouped into three categories: comedies, histories, and tragedies, though today many scholars recognize a fourth category, romance, to describe the specific types of comedies that appear as Shakespeare's later works.

Egeus is a character in "A Midsummer Night's Dream", the comedy by William Shakespeare.
 He is an Athenian who tries to keep his daughter, Hermia, from marrying Lysander the man she loves.

 The production failed to materialize and Satie's music went unperformed in his lifetime.
 His score was published posthumously in 1929.

A Midsummer Night's Dream is a two-act ballet choreographed by George Balanchine to Felix Mendelssohn's music to Shakespeare's play of the same name.
 In addition to the incidental music, Balanchine incorporated other Mendelssohn works into the ballet, including the Overtures to "Athalie", "Son and Stranger", and "The Fair Melusine", the "String Symphony No. 9 in C minor" and "The First Walpurgis Night".
 "A Midsummer Night's Dream", Balanchine's first completely original full-length ballet, premiered at New York City Ballet on 17 January 1962, with Edward Villella in the role of Oberon, Melissa Hayden in the role of Titania, and Arthur Mitchell in the role of Puck.
 The ballet employs a large children's corps de ballet.
 Act I tells Shakespeare's familiar story of lovers and fairies while Act II presents a strictly classical dance wedding celebration.
 The ballet dispenses with Shakespeare's play-within-a-play finale.
