Semester Test

I decided to do my blog on high school musical. Ive seen all of them so I know the story pretty well. Some people wonder why I like this show...,but it's pretty obvious. It's a love story about troy and gabriella, it has more popular wide-known characters than the other musicals, and I like how the movie is sat up.
The movie is sat up tp where there are cliques everywhere. Everyone belongs to one certain group. Theres the Smart kids, the skater kids and so on... then there is the basketball boys, who's leader is the coach's con, Troy. He is the big guy on campus who is really good at basketball. He has got everything going for him. During christmas break him and his parents go on a vacation to a ski resort where Troy and Gabriella end up singing together. They get eachothers' phone numbers then go their seperate ways. When school starts back up it turns out that Gabriella moves to Troy's school. They then decide to sing in the school musical which upsets everyone. Including the musical's stars, Ryan and Sharpay. When the basketball team figures out that Troy wants to sing rather than practice for the finals they arent too happy. Gabriella by now has joined the Math team and is practicing for their competition. The two teams are worried that their best team member is going to lose focus on their event so Monique and Chad come together and plan so that Gabriella and Troy wont like eachother anymore. It turns out to be a disaster and both teams feel bad about trying to wreck Troy and Gabriella's relationship. Then everyone is friends again. Troy and Gabriella end up singing, and the basketball team wins the finals.
I liked this musical better than musicals like the wiz, or Sound of music because it was a love story, kind of like Romeo and Juliet, and it had a happy ending. Also because it had widely known characters. It also reminded me of the other love story musicals like Oklahoma, Fiddler on the Roof, and West Side Story because they are also love stories.
What I liked about this musical was that it kept me interested. Other musicals somewhat bored me. But High School Musical had fun music and good choreography. And i could relate because im in High School. I dont think there is anything I didnt like about this musical.
All in all the musical is one of the best ive seen and whats better about this is that there are High School Musical One, Two, and Three.
