As tribute acts go, “The Carpenters Remembered” is particularly well-suited to Connecticut.
Richard and Karen Carpenter were born and raised in New Haven, though it’s in California that they found soft-rock fame and fortune. The show stars vocalist Michelle Berting Brett, who’s backed by a seven-piece band, and plays at 7:30 p.m. May 8 at the Palace Theater, 100 East Main St., Waterbury. Tickets are $42.50 to $63.50. 203-346-2000, palacetheaterct.org.
