You will laugh, You may cry
"Taps into the feelings of a new arrival to NYC, also clearly shows the “real NYorker” personality. Funny and poignant. And incorporates, “hey im walking here!”"

Two Strangers Terrific!!!
"We were seated in row A. At first I was so disappointed—but that turned to an advantage. You could see every adorable expression on Dougal’s and Robin’s faces. ‘Two Strangers’ was hilarious, poignant, endearing—wonderful! The row A seats were great after all!"

Funny, heartfelt, and incredibly good.
"Great show with stellar performances from the leads. Sam did an amazing job cycling through accents and Christiana’s singing voice was amazing. Covered deeper topics and included a song specifically about Tinder which is why I would not recommend for children. "

A wonderful show!
"It was the first 2 person show I have ever seen. I was unsure about it for a lot of reasons. Call me converted!! I was hooked from the first line. I belly laughed so many times I can’t count! Both leads were beyond talented in vocals, acting and dance. I loved the feel of the theater. It felt intimate. Special. I went with my best friend. 2 days out and we cannot stop talking about the lines that we loved, songs, props. Bravo!!"

A Fun Trip across NY
"I thoroughly enjoyed Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York). The cast was terrific, and the music and humor made for a very entertaining experience. I thought the use of luggage as the backdrop for all of the sets was a clever and creative staging choice. That said, I felt some scenes could have been brought to life more effectively. For example, the subway scenes and the Plaza Hotel sequence would have benefited from a little more visual detail to better capture the feel of those iconic New York settings. Even so, it was a wonderful production, and I would definitely recommend it."

Great music. Both actors were excellent. Interesting story
"I liked that it wasn’t an extravaganza—it was a relatively simple set ( although cleverly done.)
The show was excellent due to its original story line , excellent musical score, and the acting of the two characters. No special effects were needed.
I like theater ( and movies) that have interesting stories and character development by excellent actors. This play met that criteria—no other accoutrements needed.
I highly recommend it!

About
Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York)
You’ll 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. And you’ll 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.
