"Emiliano Zapata was one of the leading figures in the Mexican Revolution," press notes state. "One hundred years ago in a village outside Mexico City, the people enlisted a reluctant, young Zapata to help reclaim their stolen ancestral lands. Battered by the conflicting passions of his enchanting wife, his hotheaded brother and a succession of corrupt presidents, Zapata must ultimately relinquish his love of peace to fight — and sacrifice — for a greater cause."

Edwards has written songs for Garth Brooks, Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers, Loretta Lynn and Willie Nelson. Collaborating with his wife Ana, he has also written a series of popular children's books including "Miguelito and the Turtle,"  "Four Heads are Better Than One" and "A Gator Named Sonny."

Zapata! was previously produced in New York at the New York Musical Theatre Festival.
