CLOSE TO YOU: THE MUSIC OF THE CARPENTERS

The longest running Carpenters' tribute in North America is beginning their 14 Year-Anniversary Tour having played nearly 400 shows in 40 states.

Considered one of the best vocalists of all time, Karen Carpenter captured the attention of a generation with the surprisingly deep material of her unabashedly catchy pop music. Singer and playwright Lisa Rock has compiled a moving tribute to the music and life of Carpenter, and brings it to the stage with her 6-piece backing band. Dedicated to re-creating the true sound of The Carpenters, Rock and her band showcase some of the most memorable songs of the 70s including 'We’ve Only Just Begun', 'Rainy Days and Mondays', and of course 'Close to You'.

Hearing Enhancement

The Ashwaubenon Performing Arts Center is equipped with a Hearing Loop System that cuts out a significant amount of background noise for audience members with hearing aids or cochlear implants. Our special Hearing Loop receivers can be checked out free of charge at Coat Check.  A driver’s license or credit card is held until the unit is returned after the show.

To utilize the hearing loop system, hearing aids must be equipped with a telecoil, or a T-coil.  The T-coil in the hearing aid must be activated by an audiologist and switched on.

If you do not have a T-coil equipped hearing aid or cochlear implant but wish to benefit from the hearing loop system, a special receiver and earpiece can also be checked out free of charge.
