We’ve Only Just BegunA Celebration of The Carpenters ’Greatest Love Songs starring Toni Lee
Following 11 years of phenomenal touring success, Ireland’s most acclaimed production, "We’ve Only Just Begun," makes its highly anticipated return to the Cork Opera House on February 6, 2027.
Starring the incomparable Toni Lee and accompanied by a brilliant 10-piece big band, this is the definitive Celebration of The Carpenters' Greatest Love Songs. A previous sell-out at the Cork Opera House, the show returns by popular demand to bring these timeless, romantic masterpieces to life in an intimate and stunning live performance.
Experience the songs that defined an era of romance, including Close To You, Superstar, For All We Know, A Song For You, and Top Of The World.
"It’s a truly unique production," says creator and promoter Pat Egan. "Every one of the 23 featured songs was an American or British chart hit. To hear these legendary love songs performed live with such a high-caliber band is something you simply don't see every day."
Toni Lee’s ability to recreate the haunting, velvet vocals of Karen Carpenter is unmatched worldwide. Her performance, which was recorded for American PBS Television and screened on Virgin Media TV, has captivated audiences across the UK, Holland, and Belgium.
Under the direction of renowned Musical Director and arranger Eugene McCarthy—a veteran of the Irish and international music scene for over 30 years—this 10-piece big band production is an unmissable night for fans of the ultimate love song.
Don’t miss the return of the world's premier Carpenters celebration.
