This act was about how Hermia and Lysander had fought to find their love. Egeus was against Hermia loving Lysander and he wanted Hermia to marry Demetrius. Theseus made the proposal that if hermia did not chose to marry Demetrius she would either die or become a nun. After the discussion about Hermia, Lysander asked Hermia if she would marry him beyond the law of Athens. As they talked about where they would get married, Helena stepped in to overhear their conversation and she concocted a plan to make Demetrius notice her.
In act 2 the group of actors met to discuss the roles of the play for "Pyramus and Thisby". There was an actor named Bottom who believes that he can play all the parts because he is a great actor. A man named Flute was given a woman's part as Thisby and he was not very fond of the idea. After the long discussion for who gets what part, they decided to rehearse in the forest outside Athens.
