A classic musical for the new century. In "Z - The Musical Of Zorro" a traveling band of Gypsies performers tell the tale of young Diego Vega. He is the grandson of a Spanish Count and Gypsy Princess. Born in California he travels to Spain as a young boy to train under his grandfather, the royal swords master of Spain and learns the arts of stealth and magic from his Gypsy relatives. After the death of his grandfather he returns home to colonial California. But his home is in turmoil. The Royal Governor's demands for exorbitant taxes leave the homeless and hungry. Farms and villages have been torched and burnt to the ground. He is outraged by their plight, and inspired by the impassioned prayers of the beautiful Carlotta, for a leader to unite her people to fight for freedom, Diego vows to become that hero, and dons the mask of Zorro. Castilian blood, flamenco music, and gypsy passion embodied in one young man who challenges a greedy Tyrant. "When your freedom is stolen - sometimes you must steal it back piece by piece - like a thief in the night."
