The Maverick Theater presents the world premiere of The Return of Zorro! A hero whose many adventures took place here in Orange County. Created by pulp novelist Johnston McCulley back in 1919. Zorro is the masked cape crusader that DC’s Batman was based on. A hero for the people, a champion for justice. His blade, feared by his enemies. His mark, a symbol against tyranny. This May is the RETURN OF ZORRO!
“This is my 16th original show, and I am holding nothing back. I’ve hired a film composer to create a fully original score, which is especially vital for the action sequences. Writer Andrew Piñon (Ben from Maverick’s Night of the Living Dead) has written a play rich with romance, high-stakes action, and the timeless battle between good and evil, all punctuated with sharp comedic relief.
Zorro’s mark emerged as a symbol of resistance, justice, and hope. We all love heroes who rise to meet their moment and save the day, so come out and enjoy what promises to be a thrilling, adventurous, fun production.” — Brian Newell…
