Act/scene is difficult to determine, but this would appear to be Oberon and Titania. Non-traditional with an almost space-like feel, but very beautiful. http://youtube.com/watch?v=cZWRJgQ70SM This clip is from the same production, but location in the play is difficult to determine. It appears to be two of the lovers, perhaps Lysander and Hermia in II.ii.
