Hudson Classical Theater Company presents Hamlet

Shakespeare’s *Hamlet* returns to New York City at BAM, bringing the playwright’s longest tragedy back into a borough that has long served as a testing ground for classical revivals. Set at the Danish court, the story follows a young prince driven by grief and suspicion after his father’s death, as power consolidates around an uncle who has remarried his mother. Hiran Abeysekera is among the featured performers, drawing on an international stage career shaped by contemporary ensemble work. One enduring fact remains: the play treats revenge as inquiry, and uncertainty as its real engine.
