Colony Theatre Company to Stage California Premiere of THE FABULOUS LIPITONES
The Colony Theatre is thrilled to present the first production of its 41st season, the California Premiere of THE FABULOUS LIPITONES by John Markus and Mark St. Germain, directed by John Markus, with Musical Direction by Sam Kriger and Choreography by Murphy Cross.

A barbershop quartet that's sung together for nearly thirty years suddenly loses their lead singer when he drops dead at a regional competition, belting out a heart-stopping high B-flat in front of the judges. But he holds his note until the end of the song, and the quartet wins! Now, the three surviving members must put an end to their bickering and find a replacement in time for the Nationals. During a phone call, they hear a beautiful lead voice who could be their salvation - but when he shows up, he's a young Indian Sikh wearing a turban. And the quartet's bass singer is Archie Bunker. It's a wonderful comedy with music about the journey all four have to take to find their voice together.
THE FABULOUS LIPITONES will open on Saturday, July 25 at 8:00pm and continue through Sunday, August 23. Performances for THE FABULOUS LIPITONES are Thursdays & Fridays at 8:00pm; Saturdays at 3:00pm & 8:00pm; and Sundays at 2:00pm.
