Bill Borden, producer of High School Musical, said the film was originally planned as a three-part telefilm (as its predecessors Zenon and Halloweentown were).

STORYLINE

East High is on summer hiatus, so the battleground shifts to the country club, founded by (who else?) Sharpay's granddad. Troy, Gabriella and the others show up as lifeguards, waiters and caddies. And the haves and the have-nots tee off in the club's annual midsummer night's musical. There'll be plenty of drama: this time around, Ryan may turn on his sis. But will Troy finally get to kiss Gabriella?
