Originally a hit at London’s Kiln Theatre, Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York) is a sweet, smart musical from Jim Barne and Kit Buchan. Dougal, a wide-eyed twenty-something from England, lands at JFK to attend his estranged father’s wedding. Robin, the bride’s hardened older sister, is reluctantly his airport pickup. Over the next 36 hours, the two strangers crisscross Manhattan with a wedding cake — and slowly let each other in.

A two-person show with big musical theater feels.
