Champion High School presents, “High School Musical”

Students of Champion High School are currently rehearsing for their spring musical, “Disney’s High School Musical” to be performed on March 24 & 25, 2017 in the high school auditorium. In the stage show you’ll watch the movie characters come to life as Troy (played by sophomore, Thomas Headrick), Gabriella (played by junior, Madalyn Williams), Sharpay (played by sophomore Ginny Williams), Ryan (played by senior Kyle Shaffer), Ms. Darbus (played by sophomore, Jenna Smith), Coach Bolton (played by junior Nic Lilly), the Jocks, the Brainiacs, the Thespians and the Skater Dudes come to realize that “We’re all in this Together! Other favorite songs include, “Stick to the Status Quo”, “Start of Something New” and “Bop to the Top”.

The story: It's the first day after winter break at East High. The Jocks, Brainiacs, Thespians and Skaters find their cliques, recount their vacations and look forward to the New Year. Basketball team captain and resident jock, Troy, discovers that the brainy Gabriella, a girl he met singing karaoke on his ski trip, has just enrolled at East High. They cause an upheaval when they decide to audition for the high school musical that is being led by Ms. Darbus. Although many students resent the threat posed to the "status quo," with Troy and Gabriella's help they just might learn a thing or two.
