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 last week 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 French bulldog.

An opening date has been announced for Jack White’s Third Man Records store just north of downtown Detroit. The Detroit Free Press reported the shop will open Friday with vinyl reissues from Tamla Records. Among the early releases will be songs by Marvin Gaye, the Supremes and the Miracles. The newspaper reports that the shop’s opening also will come with limited editions, merchandise and surprise releases. The musician played in the White Stripes’ early days in the area where the store will open. He left Detroit for Nashville, Tenn., where Third Man also has a store. White and Shinola, a business that makes watches and other goods in Detroit, announced in June that they partnered to buy the building housing Shinola.

The International Emmys will honor Downton Abbey writer and creator Julian Fellowes with the honorary International Emmy Founders Award to Fellowes tonight at the Hilton New York. Elizabeth McGovern, who stars as Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham, and the show’s executive producer Gareth Neame will present the award to Fellowes. Downton Abbey has never been nominated for an International Emmy honoring excellence in TV productions outside the U.S. because its producers opted to compete in the Primetime Emmys, where it has won 12 awards. The show’s final season begins airing on PBS in the U.S.on Jan. 3. The International Emmy Awards ceremony will host 40 nominees from 19 countries competing in 10 categories. The ceremony will be hosted by Egyptian satirist Bassem Youssef, dubbed “the Jon Stewart of the Arab world.”
