Discovering Magenta is a brand new psychological musical. Henry, a mental health worker, is stuck in a rut when he and his roommate Eliot meet up with Cole and Rose, fellow psychology students. The four become fast friends, and these new companions begin to challenge Henry's views of the world. Then, while working at a mental hospital, Henry meets Katrina, a catatonic patient. As Henry helps Katrina to overcome her tragic past, he realizes his feelings for her go beyond the normal therapist-patient relationship. Indeed, upon Katrina's release from the hospital, she and Henry quickly become an "item", socializing with Eliot, Rose, and Cole. But their new happiness is quickly shattered by Rose's death, an apparent suicide. Henry finds that things are not always what they seem, and that the human eye puts two and two together and comes up with answers that aren't always four- be it Rose's death, Katrina's tragic past, or Henry's own ability to find happiness, to discover magenta.
DISCOVERING MAGENTA has been selected with 4 other new musicals to be presented at OKLAHOMA CITY UNIVERSITY-Bass School of Music on April 15, 2007 as part of their 'STRIPPED' series showcasing 30 minutes of 5 new musicals. Here's the blurb from Broadway World.com
