The 10-episode series picks up nearly 15 years after the original movie aired, at the real-life location where it all began: East High.
It follows a group of students as they count down to opening night of their school’s first-ever production of “High School Musical”. Show-mances blossom; friendships are tested while new ones are made; rivalries flare; and lives are changed forever as these young people discover the transformative power that only a high school drama club can provide.
The series will also bring brand new songs and acoustic “rehearsal-room” reinterpretations of songs from the original High School Musical provide the soundtrack for an unlikely group of theater kids who learn “we’re all in this together” when it comes to pulling off an against-all-odds opening night.
After the first episode airs on the networks tonight @ 8PM ET/PT, you can watch the entire series on Disney+, starting on November 12th.
