The Fabulous Lipitones
Book by John Markus and Mark St. GermainMusic by Randy Courts and Lyrics by Mark St. Germain
A high note leaves a barbershop quartet without their fourth member just before the national competition.
When the voice of “Bob” is heard through the phone the Lipitones are all ears… but when they meet him in person, he’s not quite what they expected. A comedy of misunderstanding, stereotypes, and the path to perfect harmony.
