Went to see High School Musical

Praisegirl43 · 01-15-2007

The kids and I went to see High School musical at the Fox Theatre here in Atlanta. It was so much fun!! The sets were neat and the scene changes were smooth. There was a little difference from the TV version. You could just feel the energy from the stage. If it comes to your city I highly recommend taking the family for an evening of fun. It was not of the same Broadway calibur of Beauty and the Beast and Lion King but it was entertaining and the message was great.

Sounds like fun. My little girl just LOVES High School Musical. I think I like it as much as she does!

My 9 year old would love to see that. Thanks for the review. Hey what happened to your trip report??

timkelmom · 01-15-2007

I was going to take my DD for her birthday, but the dates will not work out. We won't be in any of the cities on the show dates. Now I'm trying to come up with something else fun for us to do.

Glad you had a great time.

I think it would be fun to see. But, as a 37 yr old lady with no one to take - I think I'll have to skip it.

I wanted to get tix for the show in Milwaukee but logged on a day after they went on sale. They were sold out! DS would have loved to see it!!!!!

I also tried to get tickets for us to go and they were sold out too. The show is today and I looked at a couple of different sites last night on the off chance another night was added, no luck. I could of gotten 3 tickets for $219.00 each for a grand total of $657.00

Praisegirl43 · 01-16-2007

Hey Maria, I think I would just buy a copy of the dvd for that price. Even better but the money towards a trip to the WDW!! The show is now available for licensing by schools and other groups so I'm sure it will come to a theatre near you.
I was lucky, my sister gave us tickets as our Christmas present.

Maria · 01-16-2007

LOL yes I agree I should get the DVD!

Glad you and your children enjoyed the show and what a nice Christmas gift from your sister

Let's go together...It came to Savannah and I was really tempted to go and take Dave's little sister as a disguise..but I didn't...Funny side story..the lead male who is played by Zach Effron in the movie didn't really sing in the movie so they had to bring back the guy who did the voice overs for the live show..

**Dana** · 01-16-2007

I don't know if my DD would want to go or not. She said not unless Zack is there...LOL Thanks for the review. I am so happy that you enjoyed it.

LOL, OK, I'll go with you Bella.

I was wondering why the main guy was not on the tour. He was such a cutie.

Praisegirl43 · 01-17-2007

Actually none of the kids from the tv movie were in the touring company. They even used local kids from the performing arts high schools as extras. There was a separate tour earlier late last year with the real cast,
Corbin Bleu is now in the new Disney Original "Jump In" I watched the other night with my DS. It also was cute. Similiar story line about following your heart and how parents don't get it. Schoolmates picking on you for doing something different. This time it was double dutch jumping and not the High School show.

Oh no!

(I feel really mortified for him!) That's kind of embarrassing for him, don't you think?

P.S. I didn't even know they were touring! (And I stilllll haven't watched this movie...I know I'll love it, but I just keep putting it off...)

Wait, I'm confused. Zac Efron didn't really sing or the guy that is playing Troy in the stage show didn't really sing? Zac will be starring in a movie version of Hair Spray, and I would think they would have chosen him partly because of his singing ability.
