Great show. Very enjoyable.
"The actors are great. While not a typical musical with big song and dance routines the story, delivery and book are outstanding."

One of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time.
"It goes to show you there is still talent out there. Two great actors, a great script, and a simple stage proves a show that makes you laugh, have warm feelings can still be made. Enough of shows about live and dead singers and we don’t need over the top staging which is one of the reason tickets are so expensive. In London I see shows for a third of the price here. Yes, sets are not over the top but as this show proves you don’t need that excess."

Just the two of us…
"There may be only two performers on the stage, but they will transport you all around NY with a smile, a song, a romance and a solid story. Amazing vocals, simple yet poignant staging. This is feel good live theatre."

Truly underrated show
"I first heard the opening number "New York" in YouTube last year, and I couldn't get the damn tune out of my head. Luckily, I had the chance to watch it last week. Even though I was darn disappointed that Sam Tutty was not playing Dougal - I was nevertheless satisfied with the performance. I hope more people will watch this show. I feel that this is an underrated show - I didn't see much advertisement for this show in Times Square. It is a must watch for first timers in New York (like me). Watch this guys - you will enjoy it for sure."

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.
