Announcements

edit

Carpenter announced the North American dates for the tour on June 20, 2024.[1][2] European dates were announced on July 23, 2024.[3] On December 2, 2024, additional dates for the European leg were announced, comprising shows in Switzerland and Scandinavia.[4]

Concert synopsis

edit

Carpenter uses "If It Wasn't for the Nights" by ABBA and "I'm Coming Out" by Diana Ross as her entrance songs. The show starts with an animation of Carpenter walking into a building,[citation needed] followed by a pre-recorded video of her having a bubble bath. To her shock, a narrator tells her that "The Short n' Sweet Show" is right now as the curtain opens and the announcer introduces Carpenter. This is followed by Carpenter running on stage with a towel, before running downstairs and revealing a sparkling strapless corset and a matching nightgown. She proceeds to perform "Taste" and "Good Graces" with her dancers.[5] This is followed by a welcome note by Carpenter where she thanks her opening act, followed by a performance of "Slim Pickins" by the fireplace,[6] and "Tornado Warnings" with a male backup dancer.[7] Carpenter ends the set with "Lie to Girls" with female dancers and a short snippet of "Decode".[8] She opens the next set with a fictional advertisement,[citation needed] followed by a performance of "Bed Chem" in a round shaped bed with female dancers.[6] The next set opens with a intro to a fictional sitcom, "Sabrina After Dark" where Carpenter's band and backup singers were introduced,[9] and Carpenter appears in a black lace jumpsuit followed by a jazz rendition of "Feather".[10] She proceeds to perform "Fast Times" and "Read Your Mind".[8]
