In 2006, Peter Barsocchini introduced us to basketball star Troy Bolton (Zac Efron), his best friend Chad Danforth (Corbin Bleu), Drama queen Sharpay Evans (Ashley Tisdale), her twin brother Ryan (Lucas Grabeel), Taylor McKessie (Monique Coleman), and shy new girl Gabriella Montez (Vanessa Hudgens) in the High School Musical film franchise. For years, we watched them become friends, date, quarrel, and more importantly, compete in musical competitions. But, just when we thought we had said goodbye to the students of the fictitious East High School after High School Musical 3 (2011), we got some good news in 2017 that Disney was developing a series adaptation of the films. High School Musical: The Musical: The Series is a mockumentary musical drama set in the same school as the original movie.
The show follows a group of theater students who stage a musical as their school production while navigating love, friendships, family relationships, and more. The first season of the show focused on the drama teacher, Miss Jenn, as she stages a production of High School Musical: The Musical as her first winter theatre production to celebrate the school’s affiliation with the original film. In the second season, they stage a production of Beauty and the Beast for the spring musical in an attempt to win a prestigious local student theatre competition. The first season premiered on November 8, 2019. In October 2019, ahead of the show’s debut, Disney+ renewed the series for a second season and it premiered on May 14, 2021.
High School Musical: The Musical: The Series was created by Tim Federle. Federle is also an executive producer of the show alongside Oliver Goldstick, Bill Borden, Barry Rosenbush, and Tamra Davis. Greg A. Hampson and Jeff T. Miller produce the show while the production companies behind the show are Chorus Boy, Salty Pictures, and Disney Channel. The series has won several awards and has been nominated for many such as the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Kids & Family Programming, Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Children’s Programs, Artios Awards for Outstanding Achievement in Casting: Children’s Pilot and Series (Live Action), and Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards for Favourite Male TV Star, Favourite Female TV Star, Favourite Kids TV Show, Favorite Female TV Star (Kids), and Favorite Male TV Star (Kids).
