They're already talking in the talk! Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York) will release an original Broadway cast recording next month.
Set to be released digitally March 20, the album will be the second of the material to be recorded and released. A London cast album is already available on all major streaming platforms.
The Broadway album is produced by orchestrator Lux Pyramid, and co-produced by the show’s writers and composers Jim Barne and Kit Buchan, as well as the show’s director Tim Jackson, with music supervisor Nick Finlow (Back to the Future, The Book of Mormon). The song “If I Believed” is now available to stream as a single on all digital music platforms. Information on a physical release is forthcoming.
The romantic comedy officially opened on Broadway November 20, 2025 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.
The production's standbys include Phoenix Best (Dear Evan Hansen, The Color Purple), Vincent Michael (Safety Not Guaranteed, Mystic Pizza), Austin Colburn (Fixing Frankie) and Jana Larell Glover (Six: The Musical).
Directed and choreographed by 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.

The musical previously played the Off-West End Kiln Theatre and the West End’s Criterion Theatre, as well as at Harvard University's American Repertory Theater in May 2025.
In addition to direction and choreography by Jackson, the Broadway production features scenic and costume design by Soutra Gilmour, lighting design by Jack Knowles, sound design by Tony Gayle, music supervision by Nick Finlow, and orchestrations by Lux Pyramid. Casting is by C12 Casting's Stephen Kopel.
The musical is produced on Broadway by Kevin McCollum, Tim Johanson, Glass Half Full Productions, and Jamie Wilson Productions.
