Usually set in a castle in Denmark during the Middle Ages, Robert O’Hara’s reinvention of Hamlet brings our current century to the play, yet it remains a period piece. Or rather, a piece of many periods, depending on who’s doing the talking. Edited to a brief two hours and relocated to a ghostly mansion in Malibu, for the first two thirds of the running time, Shakespeare’s words and syntax are maintained.
