2 peopleA short comic story collected in issue 19 of The Sandman, it revisits Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream from the perspective of Oberon, Titania, and the faerie court. By reframing the backstage world of a classic play through fantasy, it quietly unsettles the boundary between art and reality.
The faerie court looks back at the play onstage, turning theater into a mirror of enchantment.
