The New York Times writes that Steven Lutvak, who composed the music for Broadway's A GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER, had given up on having a family until he met Michael T. McGowan. Lutvak recently wrote a wedding song to thank his fiancé. Hear excerpts of the song and watch interviews with the couple below!

Lutvak wrote the music and lyrics, along with Robert L. Freedman, for the Tony Award-winning musical, and was in the process of taking the show to Broadway when he met McGowan. They will be married this weekend (tomorrow!) on March 14 and are hoping to have a child via surrogate this summer.

'GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE' tells the uproarious story of Monty Navarro, an heir to a family fortune who sets out to jump the line of succession by-you guessed it-eliminating the eight pesky relatives who stand in his way (each played by Tony winner Jefferson Mays). All the while, Monty has to juggle his mistress (she's after more than just love), his fiancée (she's his cousin but who's keeping track?), and the constant threat of landing behind bars! Of course, it will all be worth it if he can slay his way to his inheritance... and be done in time for tea. Darko Tresnjak directs and Peggy Hickey choreographs.
