It did what Rent and The Producers could not: make a hit out of a musical. After several weeks of promotion, High School Musical debuted on The Disney Channel on January 20, 2006. The original telecast brought in millions of viewers (many of them pre-teens) and numerous subsequent airings have brought in millions upon millions more. Breaking records left and right, High School Musical is the most successful Disney Channel Original Movie to date and its soundtrack shot to #1 -- first on iTunes and then on Billboard -- with nearly all of its
songs charting as singles as well. Neither musicals nor made-for-TV movies are accustomed to that level of success, leaving families and critics to ponder why.

What is it about High School Musical that pushed it beyond standard tween fare into the realm of phenomenon? On its filmic merits alone, it doesn't stand out as fantastic. The acting and dialogue vary from weak to passable and it operates on an unlikely premise -- even for a musical.

For those who haven't yet caught the movie, it is the story of two high-schoolers, Troy (Zac Efron) and Gabriella (Vanessa Anne Hudgens), who are randomly selected from a New Year's Eve party crowd to participate in mandatory karaoke. It turns out that they're both pretty good, something they've both known but kept to themselves to escape the judgment of their peers. A week later, Gabriella transfers to Troy's school, where she's a too-smart-for-her-own-good newbie and he's the star of the basketball team, which his dad just happens to coach. They end up auditioning for the school musical, much to the dismay of Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale) and Ryan Evans (Lucas Grabeel), a pair of shoe-ins whose cozy sibling dynamic is slightly disturbing. As they pursue their interests, the rest of the student body begins to feel more comfortable with their true selves as well, slowly unraveling the dividing lines that govern high school society.

A round of compulsory karaoke kicks off the movie. The cast list is posted.

One could pin the movie's success on its heavy promotion, but The Disney Channel hypes most of its productions and while Zenon, Halloweentown, and Cadet Kelly were hits, none have come anywhere close to High School Musical's success. Clearly, this movie resonates with America's youth and, it seems, older audiences as well.

Music obviously factors pretty heavily into the film. As the cast is quick to point out, it ranges in style from hip-hop to salsa, hitting ballads and a twinge of jazz in between. Jazz isn't know for its appeal to a younger audience, though, and neither are showtunes. The High School Musical soundtrack changes that by infusing each of these productions with a distinctly pop sound. Each has that showy Broadway flare to it, but supported with heavy beats, delivered by computer-enhanced vocals, and coated with radio-friendly gloss. The creative dance numbers -- designed by choreographer/director Kenny Ortega (Hocus Pocus, Newsies) -- look like they could have come straight from the stage, yet there appears to be a music video quality to them. All this comes at a time when radio is filled with rap and heavy R&B. The soundtrack is a return to the bubblegum dance music that's been out of the pop scene since the turn of the century, sprinkled with today's radio's technological sensibilities. Put that song and dance together, and voilà, you've got pre-teens going ape over showtunes.

The cast is attractive in that teen hearthrob kind of way, an attribute always sure to pique a young audience's interest. Ashley Tisdale, Disney's newest diva-in-training, wears that crown well in her role as Sharpay Evans. As one of the four central characters on the hit Disney Channel series "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody," she brings relative star power to the project. It helps that to promote the film, Efron and Hudgens made guest appearances on "Suite Life." Grabeel, too, is familiar to his audience as Ethan Dalloway in the popular Halloweentown High.

Bro and sis Ryan and Sharpay ham it up on stage. Why have a food fight when you can break into song and dance?

The movie also makes a conscious effort to relate to popular culture and the modern way of life. There's a reference to Ashton Kutcher and his popular "Punk'd" series, for example, and even a cell phone motif. Most movies and TV shows mention technology while shying away from it as something practical either because it could solve an otherwise convenient-to-the-story problem or because it's too complicated to explain while remaining interesting. High School Musical falls into that latter trap once towards the end but is otherwise semi-unique in that it shows young people using technologies that young people actually use in their daily lives.

The most important key to the movie's success, though, is its ability to indulge viewers in a high school fantasy. In the world of High School Musical, exaggerated stereotypes run amuck: stern but well-meaning parents, eccentric teachers, arrogant athletes, and rigid social classes that entirely define individuals and their friends. Jocks, bookworms, and punks are each mutually exclusive and each student's actions are confined by the expectations of their peers. Of course, neither high school nor any other social network actually exists on a such a simple plane,
but it's a stereotype that past, present, and future students alike seem to enjoy engaging with. High School Musical pampers a commonly held fantasy of breaking through the constraints of social pressure to shine. Not only do the characters (all of them) succeed in that, but they gain adulation in doing so. Therein lies the greatest connection between the movie and its audience.

So, symptomatic analysis aside, is High School Musical for you? If you're in elementary school, your peers are a better judge than I, so "yes" seems a pretty safe answer. Teens of any age are likely to find the same qualities rather enjoyable if they can get past that word "Musical" in the title. However, the poppy music and high school setting may be offputting to older viewers. The movie is far from perfect and filled with contradictions (the characters sing and dance about the lameness of singing and dancing and the animosity between "hip" and singing is never fully explained), but that shouldn't be unfamiliar to any fan of musicals. Still, even if not award-worthy, the music is catchy, the humor is winning, and the spotty acting and script are at times charming in a "Full House" kind of way. Think of it as a G-rated Grease, only concerned with the internal workings of high school rather than the external social life.

Troy and Gabriella try a duet for the second time. The finale, as seen in the Sing Along Version.

It's not likely to be the favorite of anyone outside of its target demographic, but at the end of the day, High School Musical is a good time for viewers of any age and stands out as one of the Disney Channel's better "DCOM" Original Movies. It's refreshing to see a musical in the approximate ensemble tradition of Broadway favorites. A movie that manages to convert a lunch room into a dance floor, High School Musical succeeds as a fun musical excursion for all.

Since its January debut, High School Musical has aired both in its original form and a "Sing Along Version," both of which appear on this Encore Edition DVD. The inclusion of both versions is a big marketing point for the release, much to the satisfaction of viewers like my little cousin who recently lamented The Disney Channel's fondness for airing the Sing Along rather than the original. This second version differs only in its use of subtitles that appear on-screen during the musical numbers, each word lighting up as it is sung. These subtitles annoy when they mistakenly use "but" for "and" or, even worse, "U" for "You," but are nice to have on hand for assistance in learning the songs.

So watch this gripping drama and decide for your self
