Today, Zac Efron is making serial killer movies, Vanessa Hudgens has Spring Breakers on her resume, and song-filled, school-set Romeo and Juliet adaptations aren't sashaying across our screens. Back in 2006, it was different. That's when audiences were only just discovering High School Musical — the Disney TV movie that spawned two sequels, thrust its stars to fame and made viewers everywhere wonder just how many hats a teenager might need.
Because blasts from the past never go out of style, Woolly Mammoth is throwing back to the HSM days with one huge party at its upcoming High School Musical Night. Step back in time from 10pm on Friday, May 31, and dance to 00s tunes from the film like you're a class newcomer falling for the resident basketball star.
With Disney slinging plenty of hits over the past few decades, you can expect plenty of other love for — and songs from — the mouse house's huge catalogue as well. If you haven't belted out 'Hakuna Matata' on the dance floor, have you really taken its message to heart? From fellow animated classics like Aladdin and The Little Mermaid, to the likes of ex-Mouseketeers like Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, prepare to get mighty nostalgic.
Tickets cost $18 in advance and $20 on the door — if they last that long, because a second date on June 1 has already sold out.
