I don't think it is very accessible at least at first even for the most experienced and fluent speakers, so don't worry. Try to use one of the sites that have explanations, notes, and "translation" of some words (e.g. Shakespeare navigator) and reread it a few times if necessary. I think A midsummer night's dream is one of the lighter and "easier" works of his, you can start with that.
