Experience the music and story of the Carpenters like never before. Rainy Days, Mondays & Good Old Dreams explores the rise, influences, and challenges of the iconic sibling duo, celebrating their timeless songs while telling their remarkable – and sometimes tragic – story.

Kerry Le Bern brings Karen Carpenter’s soulful contralto to life with sensitivity and nuance, offering her own heartfelt interpretation of these beloved classics. Joined by the talented Jambalaya Band, Kerry transports audiences back to the magic of the 1970s and early 1980s, with performances that will have you singing, tapping your toes, and moved to the very core.

This is not a tribute – it’s an immersive homage to the artistry of the Carpenters. A show full of discovery, emotion, and unforgettable music – definitely not to be missed.
