     BROADWAY’S TONY AWARD - WINNING BEST MUSICAL

               “A GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE TO LOVE & MURDER

                        COMING TO BROWARD CENTER


        In 1907, Lord Montague “Monty” is living in a shabby, Clapham flat and his mother, a washerwoman, has just died. Miss Marietta  Shingle, a mysterious old woman, arrives to tell Monty that his mother was in fact a member of the aristocratic D ’Ysquith family who eloped with a Spanish musician , also deceased, which caused her family to disinherit and disown her. Wishing to spare her son any shame, Isobel never told her son the truth of his ancestry.


        Now Miss Shingle says, Monty is ninth in line to inherit the earldom of  Highurst. She insists that he take his rightful place in the family. Monty writes a letter to Lord Asquith D ’Ysquith, Sr., the head of the family banking house, explaining his connection to the family and whether there would be a job available for him.


        At this time, Monty is also in love with Miss Sibella Hallward, but she will not marry him due to his poverty. Although she dubiously accepts Monty’s story about his lineage, but remarks that eight people would have to die in order for him to become earl. After the deaths of six, leaving only two people in his way, Monty suddenly finds himself in conflict as to what he needs to do to become first in line to inherit the earldom. 


         A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder tells the uproarious musical comedy story about a distant heir to a family fortune who sets out to jump the line of succession, by any means necessary in addition to juggling his mistress who is after more than just love.
