Monty Navarro has everything: a loving wife, a mistress and he’s heir (OK, a distant heir) to a family fortune. And therein lies the problem. All that stands in the way of inheriting that wealth (and making his mistress very happy) is a line of eight relatives ahead of him. What to do? The answer is in the title of the latest Broadway Series show now at the Community Center Theater: A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder. It won the 2014 Tony Award for Best Musical.
