Ato Blankson-Wood’s Hamlet is abusive in speech but stylish in dress, lividly angry but under his own perfect control, mixed in emotion and motive and utterly impossible to read.

Wear black and talk softly, withdraw from the crowd and train your mind on higher things—it’s strange how much of the etiquette of grief is also a shortcut to cultivating an aura of sexy mystery. Maybe that’s the logic behind casting Ato Blankson-Wood, an increasingly and justly busy actor around New York, in the title role of the new Shakespeare in the Park production of “Hamlet,” at the Delacorte.

Blankson-Wood’s multifaceted, ultimately unsettled approach may be an outflow of the tendencies of his director, Kenny Leon, who never misses an opportunity to let that hundredth flower bloom. The production is set, we’re told in the program notes, in Atlanta, in 2021. Hamlet’s father was—as we gather from a huge painted portrait that looms upstage—a member of the United States Marine Corps.

I was especially tickled by Warner Miller’s take on Hamlet’s dependable pal Horatio—here, he’s an around-the-way guy, not easily excitable, the kind of dude who’s standing on the corner when you leave for work and somewhere near the same spot when you’re on your way home. You know he’s had an active day, full of talk and business, but you’d never think to ask after each of his moves. If he gives you advice, you shut up and gratefully take it.
