But no one is prepared for the shocking truths that Socrates and his University are ready to reveal: the world is round! the gods are dead! Fleet Foxes are lame! and rain doesn't come from aliens weeing on us! Songs! Dances! Masks! Banjos! Hula-hoop fights! Intense mental anguish! Angry truth-telling! Topical commentary! Biting satire!

High School Musical
Synopsis:
the captain of the east High basketball team and the key member of the academic club shock the student body by teaming to audition for the upcoming school musical in a Disney Channel Original Movie that's all about being yourself and following your dreams. Troy is best known as the player who keeps the east High basketball team on the scoreboard. Of course, life isn't always about athletics, though, and as Troy slam-dunks on the boards, beautiful and brainy GabriElla is raising the reputation of east High as the key member of the school's successful academic team. Despite their outgoing natures, no one would ever peg Troy and GabriElla as theater types. When word gets out that this popular pair has secretly chosen to reach for the stars and try their luck on the stage, the students of east High are about to learn an important lesson in teamwork while gearing up for a musical performance that will have their audience dancing in the aisles.
