Theseus and Hippolyta are about to go hunting when they discover the sleeping lovers in the woods in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream."
They are to be married in a triple ceremony along with himself
Hippolyta believes the lovers' story about their time in the forest because Theseus, her husband, confirms it. Theseus trusts the words of the lovers, and as his wife, Hippolyta also accepts their account of the fantastical events that took place during their time in the woods.
At the beginning they are: Lysander and Hermia Hippolyta and Theseus A one sided love between Helena and Demetrius. (On Helena's part) At the end they are: Lysander and Hermia Hippolyta and Theseus Helena and Demetrius
Theseus used a ball of thread/string to find his way out. This was given to him by the princess Ariadne.
Theseus is Theseus in any language. Btw the language is Latin, not Roman.
Theseus has the role of an authority figure, blocking the romance of Hermia and Lysander, and providing the motivation for them to enter the forest. Later, in the same role, Theseus is able to provide reconciliation and resolution to the lovers' situation by allowing them to pair off in the way they desire. Theseus and Hippolyta together provide the occasion of an upcoming marriage. This is the pretext for the mechanicals' play. Their wedding also becomes the event around which the final action in the play coalesces: the play Pyramus and Thisbe and the wedding of the lovers. Theseus as an authority figure can only operate in the town; in the forest he is beyond his jurisdiction, which is why Hermia and Lysander go there. For so long as the action is in the forest, Theseus is absent. Oberon is the king there.
There is the world of the court, of Theseus and Hippolyta. There is the world of the lovers. There is the world of the fairies. Finally, there is the world of the rude mechanicals.
