The Kiln Theatre production
TWO STRANGERS (CARRY A CAKE ACROSS NEW YORK)
On Broadway
by Jim Barne and Kit Buchan
Directed by Tim Jackson
An original, new musical comedy about timing, connections, and unexpected detours.
Meet Dougal, an impossibly upbeat Brit who has just landed in New York City for the first time to attend the wedding of the father he’s never met. Meet Robin, the sister of the bride and a no-nonsense New Yorker with a lot of errands to do for the bride—including picking up the groom’s estranged son from the airport.
These two strangers begin their journey together navigating New York City, secrets, and second chances. The Boston Globe raves Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York) is “IRRESISTIBLE! Clever, funny, and delightfully surprising!”
