I consider scenes 5.1, 3.1 and 3.2 to be the funniest scenes in A Midsummer Night’s Dream because they are all equally entertaining and laughable. Each of the three scenes is laughable for a different reason. In scene 5.1, the play put on by the Rude Mechanicals is funny because of the utter foolishness in the play. In scene 3.1, Titania falls madly in love with Bottom. I found it amusing that the beautiful Titania could fall head over heels for a beast with the head of a donkey. Lastly, In scene 3.2 the tension between the four lovers grows as Lysander and Demetrius battle to the death over the girls. In the midst of this, Puck is comically popping up and confusing the boys by faking their voices. Overall A Midsummer Night's Dream is a very funny piece and has at least three very comedic scenes.
