I’m actually going to see High School Musical on Ice next month!!
Disney’s High School Musical: The Ice Tour, opened in Florida in early September for an initial nine-month run.
The show combines the storylines from the two popular Disney movies, High School Musical and High School Musical 2 into a single ice show featuring the music and stories from both movies. High School Musical has become an international phenomenon since it first began as a Disney Channel movie starring Zac Efron and Vanessa Anne Hudgens. The Emmy winning hit spawned a book, stage shows, thousands of high school stage re-enactments, theme shows at Disney parks and of course, the second movie. Both the soundtrack and the movie’s DVD were number one for 2006. The High School Musical 2 soundtrack has topped the Billboard 200 charts becoming the first album to claim the top spot for four weeks straight since March 2005.
The first half of the ice show recreates the plot of High School Musical with and East High basketball star Troy and science nerd Gabriella falling in love and battling with budding diva Sharpay and her brother Ryan. As long as Troy sticks to sports and Gabriella to science, things are fine but when the two decide to try out for the high school musical parts that Sharpay and Ryan believe should be theirs, complications arise. Eventually all the conflicts are worked out as the East High teams win in basketball and the brain bowl and Troy and Gabriella sing a duet in the musical.
In the second half of the show based on High School Musical 2, the students spend the summer vacation at the local country club where Sharpay and Ryan’s parents are members. Hoping to lure Troy away from Gabriella, Sharpay gets Troy hired to work at the club. But he convinces the manager to hire Gabriella and the rest of his and Gabriella’s East High friends. As she works harder to pry Troy away from Gabriella, Sharpay tries to get the other students fired, so she can perform with Troy in a talent show. But Ryan befriends the other teens and helps them develop their own act. Sharpay gets the club to ban the students from the show but is forced to relent when Troy refuses to work with her unless the others can perform. Finally Gabriella and Troy get back together.
