Two new strangers have joined the Broadway run of Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York). Austin Colburn (Fixing Frankie) and Jana Larell Glover (Six: The Musical) are joining the company as standbys.

Written by Jim Barne and Kit Buchan, the romantic comedy officially opened on Broadway November 20 at the Longacre Theatre, after beginning performances November 1. Starring Christiani Pitts (King Kong) and Sam Tutty (Dear Evan Hansen), the musical follows a naïve and impossibly upbeat Brit, Dougal, who has just landed in New York for his estranged father’s second wedding. When Robin, the sister of the bride, picks him up from the airport, they embark on an serendipitous adventure through New York City.

Coburn and Globver join the production's existing standbys Phoenix Best (Dear Evan Hansen, The Color Purple) and Vincent Michael (Safety Not Guaranteed, Mystic Pizza).

Directed and choreographed by Tim Jackson (who also oversaw the show in London), the Broadway run stars Pitts (Broadway's King Kong) and Olivier winner Tutty (Dear Evan Hansen), after both starred in the North American premiere A.R.T. production of the musical. Tutty also originated the role of Dougal in London.

Casting is by C12 Casting's Stephen Kopel.
