A Tribute to THE CARPENTERS
at the Babbacombe Theatre, Torquay
Saturday 20th September 7.30pm
A Heart-Warming celebration of the Carpenters will be live at Babbacombe Theatre on Saturday 20th September at 7.30pm. Expect timeless melodies, beautiful harmonies, and gentle magic of the legendary Carpenters as A Tribute to the Carpenters takes to the stage.
The original Carpenters tribute is back with an all-new show for 2025, brought to life by Gordy Marshall’s The British Carpenters. Starring the outstanding Sally Creedon as Karen Carpenter, alongside an incredible line-up of musicians fresh from London’s West End, this is a night to relive some of the most cherished songs in popular music history.
From the wistful romance of Close to You and the joyous optimism of Top of the World to the heartfelt melancholy of Rainy Days and Mondays, the toe-tapping charm of Please Mr Postman, and the soaring emotion of Goodbye to Love, the evening’s setlist reads like a soundtrack to our lives. Each performance is lovingly crafted to capture the Carpenters’ signature sound – warm, melodic, and unforgettable.
With stunning live vocals, lush arrangements, and note-perfect musicianship, this tribute doesn’t just revisit the Carpenters’ greatest hits – it recreates the feeling of hearing them for the very first time. Whether you’ve been a fan for decades or are discovering their music anew, this is a show that will touch your heart, lift your spirits, and leave you humming long after the final curtain.
