Alexander Hanson was on the red carpet (his first ever Broadway red carpet) for The Brighton Beach Memoirs tonight. Hanson is starring next to Angela Lansbury and Catherine Zeta Jones in A Little Night Music opening soon on Broadway.
Hanson says that the cast of A Little Night Music has had a week of rehearsals and during that time he has found Angela Lansbury to be a complete delight. Even so, Hanson admits that it is a bit intimidating being in a room with both Lansbury and Zeta-Jones. Watch the video to see all of what Hanson had to say.

Nice to see that the big stars aren't getting all the press.
This interview just makes me even more excited for the show!

I've never seen Hanson before. He certainly is physically appealing, and has a nice speaking voice.
Hanson was fantastic in the London production, and New York is very lucky to have him.
Is that the same guy that was in Sunset Blvd. with Elaine Paige? if so he looks Soooooo different now, but I guess that was like 10 years ago or something.
He did play Joe in the London production of Sunset Boulevard to Petula Clark's Norma - I don't know whether he played opposite Elaine Paige.
Personally, I'm tipping him for this year's Olivier award, though I haven't seen his main competition yet. He really was superb and highly suitable for this particular production.
