What's it about? (a synopsis)

Disney’s High School Musical follows the story of two high school students from different social circles who discover a shared passion for singing. Troy, a high school jock, and Gabriella, much the academic, meet on a family vacation and become attracted to each other while singing in a karaoke competition. Rediscovering each other at school, their relationship and their surprise decision to audition together for the leads in the school's musical are thwarted by the school’s current leading lady, Sharpay, and Troy and Gabriella’s well-meaning friends. As they pursue their dreams, overcome obstacles and face the pressures of high school, Troy and Gabriella’s journey inspires their classmates to embrace their talents and break free from the limitations of cliques.  Finally, Gabriella and Troy find a way to be themselves and are rewarded with the lead roles in the school show. Full of catchy songs and exciting dance routines, High School Musical explores issues of friendship, first love, and acceptance.
