Yesterday Once More

Karen and Richard Carpenter touched the world with their beautiful music and became the best-selling artists of the 1970’s with more than 100 million records sold since. Their timeless tunes live on today with the signature rich layered vocals and incredible arrangements. Now, in 2025, you can relive the story of The Carpenters in the ultimate stage production celebration.

For more than two decades, Toni Lee has been delivering an incredibly authentic homage to Karen Carpenter in top venues throughout the UK and beyond. Yesterday Once More – The Carpenters Songbook is the most recent production featuring a full band steeped in Carpenters musical nuance and ready to bring an unforgettable night of heartfelt music.

Toni said: “I’ve always been around music, both my parents were in the business, so it was natural that I would get into it. I’d always loved The Carpenters since I was very, very little and I thought she had such an amazing voice. There are sometimes people in tears – not because they are upset but because the songs mean so much to them. It’s good tears.”

All the hits are here including: Superstar, Rainy Days and Mondays, (They Long to Be) Close to You and of course, Yesterday Once More.

Whether you are looking to cruise down memory lane for a feelgood night of nostalgia, or you never had the opportunity to see them live in the 70s, Yesterday Once More – The Carpenters Songbook is guaranteed to be an unforgettable night of stories and music for Carpenters fans of all ages.
