On Tuesday, Oct. 29's episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the West Side Story actress, 23, was joined by Jack Antonoff, 40, to perform "Man of the House" — which is among a handful of songs he's written for Broadway's Romeo + Juliet revival, directed by Sam Gold. Antonoff was on piano for the performance, as Zegler sang lyrics including, "How sweet / You're the man of the house to me / I watch you from the window and I see / The good in you / The good in me / That's who you are and what I need / It's what I need." The pair were joined on stage by some of the cast of the latest version of William Shakespeare's classic romantic tragedy; which stars Zegler and Heartstopper breakout Kit Connor, 20, in the titular roles at the Circle in the Square Theatre in New York City.
