Ойын-сауық
High School Musical is centered around a musical that doesn't exist: Twinkle Towne. After 18 years, I've finally uncovered the truth about East High's 2006 winter musical.

So I made a little oopsie: I haven't read Romeo and Juliet since like 7th grade, and in that play they were actually both in the *same* social class. My bad. BUT I'm still sticking with the characters having different social standings in Twinkle Towne because it still fits with the rest of the theory :-) Also I have never seen West Side Story before so if it seems similar to that it is probably just because I am very good at my detective job

Hello! High school English teacher here to tell you that this is totally okay! For an R&J adaptation you just need a reason for the love to be forbidden. Different social classes - especially when one of them is part of the elite upper class - is a perfectly logical explanation.

I can't help but think that in your interpretation, bop to the top is the song the antagonists sing as they do an ocean's 8-esque heist at a party - they are pretending to be dancing, but are actually stealing the necklace. Like they "slip and slide" around the guards; "jump and hop" on top of... something... and then have to "hop til we drop" and drop down to hide from a guard, then "start again" trying to find a new method of approach, etc. Aha! Genius!

The one true HSM
Romeo and Juliet are called “star-crossed lovers” by the chorus in the prologue, referring to astrology and misfortune (born with a tragic fate). The astronomy map seems relevant to that, plus the line “there’s not a star in heaven that we can’t reach” (sung by Arnold) in Breaking Free seems to imply that they can rearrange the stars and change their fate. If Arnold is lower class like you said, then maybe that’s why he’s interested in space-he wants to understand the things that seem to have “cursed” him with poorer circumstances. 👀 And like you said, stars are referenced by the title TWINKLE Town. Wow the LEVELS to this movie?? Truly iconic. Thanks for making me appreciate this childhood favorite even more.

LOOOOVE that! I also thought the twinkle in the name could possibly refer to the twinkling of the diamonds in addition to the stars? Since they ARE in the Diamond District! When they ditch it, the “starry sky” shining in the background might actually just be symbolizing Twinkle Towne itself 💎💍✨ (aside from it being nighttime, lol)
I'd love to imagine the reason Bop to the Top's lyrics are just about dancing is because the pair are renowned Latin ballroom dancers who mingle with the upper echelon due to their talents. Coming from poor backgrounds themselves they've seen what fame can bring such as "glory", so they've begun to *expertly interweave their dancing abilities with pickpocketing* and used their stolen wealth to break into very elite social groups. During the song we see how the antagonists utilise their dancing to steal jewellery and watches off other contestants by simply brushing past them on the dancefloor and distracting the audeince and judges by mesmerising them with their choreography. And when other contestants complain and accuse the pair (bc after a few competitions you'd start to notice you're always losing valuable items) the pair use their strong physiques to bash the other contestants (on and off the dance floor)and cause injuries and/or bribe the police. Anyways love this analysis! I have so many headcanons based on your research now, what a fun project to explore! Thanku Dream Jelly :)
Fun Fact: There's a HSM comic from the Walt Disney Company called Lasting Impressions where they did another musical that seemed to be before the events of HSM 2. It was called Twinkle Seine and took place in Paris, France around the mid to late 1800s.

Absolutely loved this. I really like how the diamonds and stars/astronomy all tie in with the "twinkle" in the title.
Arnold being in a lowerclass guy in a NYC wanting to be an astronomer adds a double meaning to 'I want to break free' where, due to the light pollution, he'd have to 'break free' from the bright-or twinkling-city to the countryside where he can finally show Minnie the stars
Can you believe that as a kid my brain never processed the plot of the movie had a high school musical casting and stuff ongoing in their school, but I also didn't know english at that time, I just needed the singing, drama and romance and my brain didn't care about anything else.

The two different lamps on the prop list are also 70s inspired too. :3 Beaded lampshades and stained glass lampshades were very in back then.
The stage musical version (yes there is a stage adaptation) confirms that the musical is a retelling of Romeo and Juliet. Very weird when you consider Sharpay and Ryan wanted the leads
Fun fact, the Christmas spectacular that’s held at radio city music Hall every year has camels in its live nativity scene, and has had that since it’s inception in 1933 if all of this occurs somewhere near Christmas time, that could explain why a camel was in New York City. And where is radio city music Hall? In New York City diamond District! Maybe this man was so willing to buy the diamonds, because he had just swindled a camel from radio city Hall!

I take your Romeo and Juliet and raise you… Taming of the Shrew. The antagonists are actually Arnold’s family. He gets caught up in their schemes because they convince him the only way he can follow his dreams is if he (the only eligible son in the family) marries Minnie, affording the family riches and Arnold class mobility. It’s a classic tale of being dared to date a girl, but falling in love with her for real. Bop to the top’s “hustle” is referencing his families attempts to impress Mr. Shane, so when the relationship is revealed, he is already endeared to the family. Minnie at some point figures out the scheme, and the family, still making their way into Mr. Shane’s inner circle after leaving an impression on him, are able to hatch a new plan to steal the necklace. Arnold must prove his love is true, and warns Minnie of the plan. They manage to capture Arnold’s scheming family and have damning evidence. They plan to run away together, believing Arnold’s familial relation to the antagonists would prevent any approval from Mr. Shane. However, this act of bravery speaks to Mr. Shane’s otherwise hidden emotional side, and he permits Arnold and Minnie to live their lives how they see fit.

All these years I thought that Twinkle Town was about two people (Minnie and Arnold) auditioning for a musical and falling in love... Like literally the plot of high school musical layered into itself potentially infinitely, each musical a reflection of the musical within itself. a musical about two people auditioning for a musical about two people auditioning for a musical. this got worse when HTMTMTS came out because it added YET ANOTHER layer, a musical about two people auditioning for a musical about two people auditioning for a musical about two people auditioning for a musical. When does it end? Are we in a musical right now? Anyway your theory is a lot better thought out so ill go ahead and adopt that into my belief system. Oh and something about a little grandpa guy.

All this evidence points me to thinking of a 'Strictly Ballroom' style movie. They've been at the same dance school but are learning different styles, such as the classical ballroom and the modern disco. Pressure from their teachers or pageant mums, they come together and combine their styles with the Merengue. The diamond necklace? The prize for the big competition or a stealing plot, the antagonist plants it on Minnie or Arnold to try disqualify them.
id also say MAYBE minnie and arnold arent strangers, because they mention in two different songs they didnt realize someone like that was RIGHT BESIDES THEM, which seems to imply they at least knew about each other existence or shared some spaces at some capacity (im inclined to believe arnolds family worked for the schain's and they all were at the party because of that) but the party was the first time they actually talked and were alone together and even shared interests (maybe shes a space nerd too, the moon appears in their duet specifically) and after that they cant take their eyes of each other like what do you mean someone who understands me so well was right beside me and we CANT keep talking because my rich dad needs to introduce me to a bunch of rich spoiled weirdos he wants me to marry (which is a hunch, but very likely to happen in a play in the 70s with rich people)
I'm impressed that you were able to come up with this much detail. However, I'm a little confused as to why you concluded that Minnie and Arnold must be from different social classes. In Romeo and Juliet, as well as in modern adaptations of the same storyline, the two protagonists are from rival families of the same social class. Having Arnold come from an equally wealthy and prominent family would be more consistent with the Romeo and Juliet inspiration, and would also help explain why he was at the party in the first place.

I was an 11 year old girl at the time with peak N.L.O.G. syndrome so I totally get your message. Seeing this and the sad realization that *everyone* slowly adopted it as I got older just makes me cringe now and appreciate the movies a little more for being fun, though I’ll probably never actually sit and watch it.
I had the All Access book as a kid. I've kept it for years and in top quality with (most) of the items. I recently gave it away to one of my nieces that recently got obsessed with the first movie so she could enjoy it like I did.
My initial impression on the guy named “incredible Mr. Schain” was that he was a magician. his name very much reminds me of the magical mister mistoffelees from cats (who’s not really a magician more than he is just actually a wizard cat) like “incredible” seems like a title a magician would give himself. I feel like maybe he wouldn’t be the diamond’s owner, but maybe a magician con artist? One of the villains perhaps.
Imagine if someone who worked on HSM saw this and said that this is all actually right 😂

I would actually pay so much money to see a live production of this Twinkle Towne
the bop to the top PLOT TWIST blew my mind
I think the antagonists in bop to the top are actually convincing Arnold and Minnie to work with them. Lyrics including 'shooting for the stars' and 'work our tails off every day' are appealing to Arnold's astronomy dreams, while the lyrics 'got to raise the bar' are appealing to Minnie's dream of passing the bar exam being a lawyer. The star crossed lovers must work with these hardened criminals for their safety, knowing one wrong move and they'll be pinned to take the fall.(This number is the act 1 closer) Luckily Minnie uses her skill of speaking like a lawyer to make sure our antagonists are the ones arrested for the attempted heist. However, Mr Shaine is not so easily fooled and pursues the couple in chase. It is at this point it is revealed that Arnold chose the date for the heist and he used his astronomy knowledge to pick the night of the extremely rare face moon (when the moon resembles a human face) which is when werecamels are on the prowl. Minnie's dad is trampled by a rampaging werecamel, but before are heroes can meet the same fate they sing breaking free, calming the creature and giving him control of his fate. This is when it's revealed to be Johnny Omni the man who they'd met in the park earlier. Johnny is thankful and provides them the funds to leave New York and start a new

omg, friend and I have been theorizing about what the musical in the movie was about for YEARS. Thank you! One small thing, not saying the evidence of the musical doesn't imply Arnold's family is less wealthy than Minnie's, but you don't extrapolate that from romeo and juliet because the whole beginning of the play is "two families alike in dignity" because the point isn't that romeo and juliet are not being kept apart by class difference, but by a feud that is so pointless that we never even learn what the feud is over, we only see the dire consequences the family experience because they kept fanning the flames of hatred and discourse until it consumed their own children.

I like to think the in universe musical was an unlicensed version of an extremely popular Broadway show that was rewritten JUST ENOUGH so the school could avoid getting sued
This is such an interesting video, and possibly the most in-depth analysis on this subject to date! Huge props for your research-the idea of a musical about a jewel heist in 1970s New York City, possibly with half or even 3/4 of the prominent characters being Latinos, is quite compelling. I don't think any of this was what the screenwriters and crew behind the movie intended, so you did a great job in putting it all together so efficiently. I would totally check out this musical! Just a few pointers, though (apologies if I'm being too pedantic): what is referred to as a "disco ball" is actually formally known as a mirrorball (or glitterball, for those who live in the UK), and most importantly, the Latin musical stylings in both Bop to the Top and Can't Take My Eyes Off of You sounds closer to something like Salsa or Mambo than Merengue. Merengue is much more frantic in its sound-think the music of Elvis Crespo, or the song Kulikitaka by Toño Rosario, which was actually trending on TikTok a couple years ago during the height of the pandemic.
I'm directing my high school's production of High School Musical the Musical this year and in the script, they changed the name of the in-universe musical to 'Juliet and Romeo.' Also, 'Bop to the Top' is sung in the first audition by the students auditioning for ensemble roles THEN by Sharpay and Ryan at the callbacks.
I always look forward to your jokes, editing and find myself doing the same face for the majority of the video as "dream jelly"😂

i love that the movie has you going through all these awesome clues and research, and then the high school musical “on stage” musical just comes out and says on page NINE that it’s “Juliet & Romeo” written by Kelsie lol
i remember in year 7 of highschool the older years put on a stage performance of highschool musical and before the intermission for break time some of our teachers came out and briefly talked about this oral hygiene campaign before giving every single 11 to 12 year old british child in the room a toothbrush and toothpaste. for the duration of break time 90% of the kids in that year sprayed eachother with toothpaste or squirted it all over the floor of the outdoor areas and just flung the brushes around haphazardly. when we came back from break the musical resumed as normal but then as soon as it ended, our head of year and some other important teaching staff got up from their seats and started screaming at everyone in my year for being stupid and having every individual person line up and return their empty tubes of toothpaste and their toothbrushes to a cardboard box at the front of the main hall. and thats why i associate highschool musical with toothpaste. also cool video ten outta ten.
having never personally seen Highschool Musical or any media related to it before, I'm just going to immediately accept this as 100% canon. this was all put together so well (like an easy diamond heist) that I can't even try to dispute it. but seriously, I love watching people being excited about things I'm barely aware of. you got me invested in an obscure aspect of a movie I've never watched, and I can only say: Thank You.
