The musical follows wide-eyed optimistic Brit Dougal and sardonic New Yorker Robin as they, surprise surprise, carry a cake across New York City for the wedding of Dougal\u2019s father and Robin\u2019s sister.<\/p>\n<p>These sweet-and-sour opposites may not seem like the most likely of pairings, but there\u2019s nothing that will bring two strangers together like the experience of carrying a cake across the city of New York.<\/p>\n<p>The runaway success of Two Strangers is part of an exciting new trend in the West End musicals scene; namely, smaller original musicals gaining traction in fringe theatres and eventually transferring to the West End. You only have to look at the success of musicals like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/going-out\/going-out-reviews\/operation-mincemeat-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Operation Mincemeat<\/a> and Six to see just how beloved these types of shows can become.<\/p>\n<p>Musical theatre fans will be glad to see the return of Olivier award winner Sam Tutty and Dujonna Gift to the West End after their stint in the award-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen. The duo will be reprising their roles as Dougal and Robin, alongside director and choreographer Tim Jackson.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re a die-hard musical fan or just fancy trying something new, you\u2019re sure to have your heart warmed by Two Strangers.
