The Lipitones are an Ohio-based barbershop quartet that has just won the regionals - but lost their tenor in the process, to a literally heart-stopping "high B-flat." In their scramble to find a replacement before the Nationals, they hear the dulcet tones of "Bob." His voice is amazing, but upon meeting him, he is not the person they expected. The uproarious comedy is a tale of battling stereotypes, misunderstandings and pitch-perfect harmony.

Creating the world of the Lipitones are scenic designer R. Michael Miller (GSP season opener Outside Mullingar); costume designer Esther Arroyo and lighting designer Christopher J. Bailey (both from last season's Clever Little Lies); and sound designer Scott Killian (Outside Mullingar). Casting is by McCorkle Casting (Pat McCorkle, Casting Director; Katja Zarolinski, Associate).
