'Zorro' is a musical with music by the Gipsy Kings and John Cameron, and a book by Stephen Clark and Helen Edmundson, lyrics by Stephen Clark, based on the 2005 mock biography Zorro: A Novel, the first origin story of the pulp hero Zorro, written by Chilean author Isabel Allende. It is a prequel to the events of the original Zorro story, Johnston McCulley's 1919 novella The Curse of Capistrano. It also contains numerous references to earlier Zorro-related works, especially the 1998 film The Mask of Zorro. The original show did a trial run tour which proved to be successful. This led to the show being transferred to the West End. This transfer included some minor changes such as the recasting of the roles of Luisa and Ramon.

The musical originally opened at the Congress Theatre in Eastbourne with a five night run between March 4th - 8th before moving to the West End in July.

The musical began previews at the Garrick Theatre in London on July 2, 2008, after the first few were cancelled due to technical problems. The official opening was July 15, 2008. Christopher Renshaw directs and Rafael Amargo choreographs. The cast currently features Matt Rawle as Zorro/Diego De La Vega, Emma Williams as Luisa, Adam Levy as Ramon, Lesli Margherita as Inez, Nick Cavaliere as Garcia, and Jonathan Newth as Don Alejandro.

After almost nine months in the West End, the final London performance of Zorro at The Garrick Theatre was on March 14, 2009.
