High School Musical Summer Celebration

High School Musical fever is back when Disney turned the musical movies into a live musical with songs from the HSM movie franchise to Asia. I was planning to get my tickets from Rock Corner Gardens, but I entered the High School Musical Summer Celebration on the internet and won the contest! I didn't expect to win the contest knowing that winning a national contest open to everyone is hard...It all started when I was driving to college and was listening to Mix FM, and suddenly the DJ announced the cue to call to win the tickets, I tried to call but no luck, I was driving alone I didn't want to divide my concentration on the road...so after the 2 hour class I went home and looked for a date and ticket seats for the live musical at KLCC Convention Center Plenary Hall.

I picked my RM153 seat on Friday at 3pm matinee found a nice seat online, excluding other minor charges...and planned to get the tickets on Friday morning before the show...but I received a notice from GD EX saying that no one was home to collect a document for me, I was wondering what document that I got from a courier service because I did not shop for anything online...so I called and gave them a time to send the document to me again and I asked them who was the sender...and it was from Airtime Mix FM, at first I thought they sent me a survey form...after a while I realized I might have just won tickets to HSMSC...

I waited for GD EX to deliver the document anxiously waiting to see whether I really won the HSMSC tickets, I was right, I opened the envelope and the tickets was there...WOOHOO...I won the tickets to HSMSC!I went to KLCC early the same day I got the tickets in my East High "uniform", had a quick early dinner and went to the Plenary Hall with my brother...I'm surprised that there are many adults in the hall (without any children with them)...I was like WHOA...adults too? Before that I saw Joel Santiago and Brooke Gibson (Troy and Gabriella) was outside the Plenary Hall taking pictures with their fans...

Kelsi Nielsen (the composer of East High) and Taylor McKessie (Chad's gf) narrated the live musical...the musical started with What Time Is It? from HSM2...the live musical is full of dances and singing, light effects, it's so different watching it on stage live...the atmosphere is totally different...the songs are so loud, the spotlight shining at your face...The performers are really good that they can dance non-stop for 90 minutes, gotta give credit to that! They even invited a few on stage to dance and sing with them...really nice. The songs are so infectious that it made me tap my feet, clap along, and sing along to those songs that I've heard for 3 three years!

Although the performers are not the original cast, they still played the characters well, especially Ryan and Sharpay who was played by Kevin Kempscynski and Lindsey Medlen! And some of their costumes look exactly the same from the movie! I'm really glad that I went to the live musical, it was really awesome!Last night was also the premiere of High School Musical 3: Senior Year on Disney Channel and it was one heck of a High School Musical music party!
