All About High School Musical

It’s every teenager’s movie, loads of awesome music and absolutely enthralling screenplay, and to keep it going for three parts is an exceptional feat. The first movie in the franchise came out in 2006 and earned accolades for its youthful storyline. They didn’t need to sell high school musical Tix, it was a success without them; the film was viewed by 225 million people worldwide and won the Emmy award. The movies feature Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens as central characters who go about their extremely musical high school days facing unprecedented conflicts. High school musical 2 was released in 2007, and this much awaited sequel got an even greater reception. High school musical 3: senior year made it 3 hits in a row for Disney.

The beginning of the tale

The movie captures Romeo and Juliet kind of frissions between its central characters Troy (Efron) a basketball prodigy around school and Gabriella Montez (Hudgens), a whiz at maths and science. In addition to their outwardly apparent talents, they are really good singers, something they don’t know yet.

All this time the winter musical is drawing close, and both of them end up auditioning for it. However, they disregard the fact that they are up against the intimidating brother-sister duo of Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale) and Ryan Evans (Lucas Grabeel) who pull everything out of the bag to thwart them. The movie was watched by 7.7 million viewers in USA at the time of its premier and made a huge profit for Disney without selling high school musical tickets.

The second act

It was always going to be tough to follow up on the first movie’s success, but high school musical 2 was everything it promised and more. A worried Troy is looking for a job to save up for college expenses, and Sharpay does the needful by getting him a job at her parent’s club. 17.2 million People watched it on the first day itself.

A twist in the tale leads to Troy convincing the manager Mr. Fulton to hire his friends for jobs at the club as well. A budding romance ensues between Troy and Gabriella, while Sharpay jealously tries to win Troy’s attention. The Midsummer’s night musical approaches and he is forced to make a choice between his friends and Sharpay. The movie opened to 33 million viewers on its first weekend, becoming the highest watched cable telecast ever.

In theatres: high school musical 3

The third part of the story was the first to be released in theatres, and people lapped up the high school musical Tix. In the story Troy and Gabriella love each other, but now that school is about to end worries of separation cross their minds. His dad expects him to attend the University of Albuquerque but Troy has other plans.

The climax included a spring musical and the best characters get in the groove in a bid to impress the visiting team from Julliard. The movie had a domestic opening weekend of over $42 millions; want to calculate how many high school musical tickets they sold to reach the mark. In a bid to cash in on the success of the movies, the fourth part is slated for release next year, this time with a new batch of students. Everyone’s waiting with baited breath, are you one of them?
