High School Musical is a 2006 American musical television film produced by Disney Channel. The film stars Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, and follows students Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez as they audition for the school musical, causing division among the school's social cliques. The film's success led to sequels, spin-offs, a television series, and stage adaptations. It premiered on January 20, 2006, and generated 7.7 million viewers in the U.S., breaking the then-record for the highest premiere for the network. The film's soundtrack was also a commercial success. High School Musical is considered a modern adaptation of Romeo & Juliet. The film's success has had a significant impact on the Disney Channel and its programming.

CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:

High School Musical was conceived after writer Peter Barsocchini was inspired by a high school basketball teammate who wanted to be a ballet dancer. This idea of a basketball player also having musical aspirations became the central theme of the movie.

The movie's development was also influenced by the success of musical episodes in Disney Channel's Even Stevens and That's So Raven. Disney executives recognized the appeal of the musical format among their young audience.

High School Musical was filmed in Utah, using East High School and Murray High School as primary locations. Additional filming took place in Los Angeles.

The movie's budget was a relatively low $4.2 million, but its success led Disney Channel to increase budgets for future television films. This allowed the network to develop more "tentpole" movies based on music or popular franchises.
