Based on the phenomenal hit movie, Disney’s High School
Musical is a contemporary musical comedy about Troy, a
popular high school basketball star, and Gabriella, a shy,
academically gifted newcomer, who discover they share a secret
passion for singing. When they sign up together to audition for
the lead roles in the school musical it threatens East High’s
rigid social order and sends their peers into an uproar. In a
desperate attempt to maintain the status quo, the “jocks,” the
“brainiacs” and even the drama club regulars, are soon hatching
convoluted plots to separate the pair and keep them offstage.
However, by defying expectations and taking a chance on their
dreams, the couple inspires other students to go public with
some surprising hidden talents of their own.
