Carpenters From Kempsey
The Carpenters From Kempsey, celebrate The Carpenters, but with a comic twist.
Starring Darren Mapes & Debora Krizak, they play Darren & Sharon
Carpenter--from Kempsey. Together they recreate the sound of The
Carpenters with uncanny accuracy. Darren & Sharon Carpenter's lives
magically transformed the day that they discovered those "Other
Carpenters". Not only did they share a family name, but they looked
similar as well. Join them in concert, as they hit the road singing all
those songs The Carpenters made famous, including Top of the World, Rainy
Days & Mondays, Calling Occupants, Ticket To Ride, Close To You, Mr
Postman, Sing, as well as the odd parody and songs that Darren & Sharon
feel the Carpenters "should" have done (their Cold Chisel medley, done
Carpenters style, is a masterpiece)
Presented by: Darren Mapes & Debora Krizak
