/ Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York)
TWO STRANGERS (CARRY A CAKE ACROSS NEW YORK) became the talk of the town when it premiered at London’s Kiln Theatre in 2023. Catch this new hit musical when it transfers to the West End’s Criterion Theatre in Piccadilly Circus this spring!
Reprising their roles as Dougal and Robin, TWO STRANGERS (CARRY A CAKE ACROSS NEW YORK) stars Olivier Award winner Sam Tutty (Dear Evan Hansen) and Dujonna Gift (Hamilton), with direction from Tim Jackson.
This intimate and refreshingly original show, written by Jim Barne and Kit Buchan, is one part “rom” and two parts “com”, with a splash of culture clash. TWO STRANGERS is the toast of 2024 – so book now, and remember the full title later.

What is Two Strangers (Carry A Cake Across New York) about?
Dougal is a naive, impossibly upbeat Brit who’s just landed in New York for his dad’s second wedding. The dad he’s never known. Waiting for him at the airport is Robin, the sister of the bride. She’s a native New Yorker, she’s late for work, and she doesn’t have time to stop and see the sights. Instant attraction? Nope. But with an extravagant wedding approaching and the Big Apple at their feet, anything could happen…
