New York (AP) — Tony Award-winner Nathan Lane has tied the knot with playwright and producer Devlin Elliott.

The actor's publicist confirmed that the two were married Tuesday in a small ceremony at City Hall.

Lane, a Tony winner for The Producers and A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, received a best-actor Tony nomination for his role in The Nance in 2013. He was on Broadway in the spring in It's Only a Play and will next be seen in FX's American Crime Story.

Elliott has helped produce the Master Class revival with Tyne Daly and Ragtime.

The couple have been together for 18 years and recently collaborated on a picture book about a dog, Naughty Mabel, inspired by their overindulged, well-groomed French bulldog.
