The New Fad at Middle School


There is a new Disney Chanel movie that almost every kid in the middle school (at least those that will admit it) has been getting into. It is called High School Musical and is about the drama and dramatics involved in auditoning for the big musical at school and the question of will it make me uncool to all the cool kids. There is one girl named Sharpay (I guess that is how you spell it) who is a major control freak... I don't know anyone else like that? She and her brother (who is the best chracter in the movie who wears a bunch of funky hats) dominate the drama department and tries to destroy anyone who gets in their way of the leading roles. For the most part, it is a cheesy as cheesy gets, but at the same time it is too much fun. The songs aren't that great, but they get stuck in your head. Especially the "Getcha' Head in the Game" song. The choreography is great and the kids in the movie can really dance. The drama teacher refers to the show as the "musi-cale" (rhyming with gal). That gets a little annoying. Check it out and have some innocent fun. Look at the official High School Musical website to find a show time.
