We are just less than one week from the upcoming fourth season of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series!
The Disney+ musical/documentary style TV sequel of the hit High School Musical franchise follows the “real” students at East High, where they filmed the movies.
Throughout the seasons, we’ve seen the students put on a production of High School Musical, Beauty and the Beast and Frozen.
The characters have gone through ups and downs, gone to summer camp, and faced many things that normal teenagers go through, like first relationships and discovering their sexuality.
As we gear up for the new season, we’re taking a look at all that we know about what’s going on, who’s in it and more.
