Mary Magdalene
Affluent. Angry. Alone.
Safe.
Love is the Ultimate Risk.
MARY - A MUSICAL
Book by Gayla D. Morgan and Jean Mornard
Music and Lyrics by Gayla D. Morgan
MARY - A MUSICAL is a full-length musical drama about a damaged, fiercely strong woman who has distanced herself from society and doesn't trust anyone.
We watch as she learns to choose community over solitude, and to release her fears in favor of loving, and feeling Love again. We see her become even stronger for making those choices.
The woman's name is Mary Magdalene.
Mary is not some Biblical icon - she is Everyperson, dealing with the same struggles we deal with today:
being accepted by others and, ultimately,
accepting ourselves.
