According to Greek myth they were married in Athens (or on board Theseus' ship).

In Shakespeare's play, everything takes place in a forest outside Athens.

Midsummer nights dream questions Who is the queen of the Amazons?

In A Midsummer Nights Dream Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons, has been defeated by Theseus, the king of Athens. Theseus has fallen in love with Hippolyta, and plans to marry her. The main action of the play takes place during the preparation for this wedding.


How have Oberon and Titania been involved in the past with Theseus and Hippolyta and why did they go to Athens?

All are Greek mythological characters, Oberon was a twentieth century actress who gave her name to the Oberon Flap on beltless pants, in one film she wore one playilng a Napoleon-like character in Drag. she was supposed to be playing the French Writer George Sand ( a woman). Real answer: Oberon & Titania have been romantically involved with Theseus and Hippolyta. Oberon and Titania have come with fairies from India to bless the wedding of Theseus and Hippolyta.


How have Oberon and Titania been involved in the past with Theseus an hippolyta and why have they come to Athens?

To start with the last question first, they have come for the wedding. During the argument, Titania says "Why art thou here but that, forsooth, the bouncing Amazon, your buskin'd mistress and your warrior love to Theseus must be wedded." Oberon replies, "How canst thou thus for shame Titania glance at my credit with Hippolyta, knowing I know thy love to Theseus." She says that this is not true; that his accusation is "the forgeries of jealousy." It does rather sound like Oberon thinks he has some "credit with Titania" but this might be Oberon's wishful thinking. At the wedding the fairies do not show themselves to bless the happy couple; they do it secretly. And this suggests that possibly these love-relationships are all happening in Titania and Oberon's minds, and they actually don't have any relationship with Theseus and Hippolyta.
