'Afterglow' Performance Celebrates THE FABULOUS LIPITONES at George Street Tonight

In their current offering, The Fabulous Lipitones, barbershop harmony takes center stage at George Street Playhouse. In this hilarious a cappella musical comedy, an Ohio-based quartet becomes a trio when their lead becomes victim to a (literally) heart-stopping b-flat on stage at the regional competition. Their frantic search for a replacement before the nationals leads them to "Bob," who's not exactly what they anticipated.

In the barbershop world, performances and competitions are frequently celebrated with an "afterglow" following the event. George Street Playhouse continues that tradition by offering another locally-based, award-winning quartet following tonight's December 10 performance of The Fabulous Lipitones. This post-show event is free, with no cover or minimum and will be offered in the Playhouse's cabaret lobby space.

The bar and concessions will be open for the duration, offering libations and tempting snacks. For tickets and information, contact the George Street Playhouse Box Office, 732-246-7717 or visit www.GSPonline.org. George Street Playhouse is located at 9 Livingston Avenue, in the heart of New Brunswick's lively downtown. When planning your visit, visit www.GSPonline.org for dining and parking suggestions.

Under the leadership of Artistic Director David Saint, George Street Playhouse has become a nationally recognized theatre, presenting an acclaimed mainstage season while providing an artistic home for established and emerging theatre artists. Kelly Ryman was appointed Managing Director in 2013. Founded in 1974, the Playhouse has been well represented by numerous productions both on and off-Broadway - recent productions include the Outer Critics' Circle Best Musical Award-winner The Toxic Avenger; the Outer Critics Circle, Drama Desk and Drama League nominated production of The Spitfire Grill; and the recent Broadway hit and Tony and Pulitzer Prize winning play Proof by David Auburn, which was developed at GSP during the 1999 Next Stage Series of new plays. In addition to its mainstage season, GSP's Touring Theatre features four issue-oriented productions that are seen by more than 40,000 students annually. George Street Playhouse programming is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.
