Answer 1

The correct option is A A Midsummer Night's Dream

• A Midsummer Night's Dream is a comedy play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1590 and 1596.
• The play is one of Shakespeare's most popular works for the stage and is widely performed across the world.
• In "A Midsummer Night's Dream" Puck is a mischievous sprite and Oberon’s servant and jester. Puck is perhaps the play’s most adorable character and stands out from the other fairies that drift through the play.
