Importance to
the plot
He messes up
everything as it starts
to go well
There is a hint to the audience that the lovers are
about to work things out and then Puck puts it in the
wrong place making the play more interesting and
gripping to watch.
Helps Oberon to
carry out his plans
Without Puck, Oberon wouldn't be able to
make his plans work as he would have to
do it himself meaning he would be unable to
play the role he has himself, for example
when he has to argue withTitania.
