Answer:

Although A Midsummer Night’s Dream opens with Theseus and Hippolyta, Shakespeare does not focus the action of the play solely, or even primarily, from the point of view of the Athenian rulers. Instead, the point of view alternates between three storylines: the Mechanicals preparing to put on a play, the fairies making mischief, and the lovers quarrelling, with Theseus and Hippolyta returning at the end. Throughout the play, the point of view shifts from scene to scene, so we get equal insight into the motivations of all the characters. The audience alone understands the action from every side. For example, we know that Puck has enchanted Bottom and replaced his head with a donkey’s head. The other Mechanicals, however, don’t know about the enchantment, so react with fear when they see Bottom. And Bottom himself doesn’t know he now looks like a donkey, so is puzzled when his friends run away from him. This device, where the audience knows more than the characters, is called dramatic irony. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare often employs dramatic irony, so that the audience understands the action better than any of the characters.
