The new Broadway musical Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York) will be filmed for The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts’ Theatre on Film and Tape Archive at the performance on April 30th at 7:30pm.

Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York) follows Dougal, an endlessly optimistic Brit visiting New York City for the wedding of the father he’s never met, and Robin, the bride’s sharp, no-nonsense sister. As they journey across the city, their differing perspectives give way to something unexpected. Fresh, funny, and full of heart, this original musical is both a love letter to New York and a celebration of the joy in human connection.
