The highly anticipated Broadway revival of Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler's Tony Award-winning musical, A Little Night Music, (which has been entrusted to director Trevor Nunn) has opted for a younger take on the casting. You ask yourself, what's young...how's this, a one Mr. Aaron Lazar (A Tale of Two Cities and Les Misérables) as Count Carl-Magnus Malcolm? I have to admit when I first heard this I had a hard time rapping my head around the idea...but then I thought some more and I came to this conclusion. After Lazar steps into this role, I don't think a sexiest ass-whole will ever look this good again. Other casting still pending.
