TROY
Hey what’s up, Dad?
At work weird things are happening to me like
Today I played golf with Sharpay
And also her whole family, you know
Her dad’s a big name at, U of A
They want to get to know me, and take me out to dinner
Because I ball, and I golf, and I also sing
They’re very nice people, but it’s still a little strange
I guess if I talk to them, they might give me a chance to play
TROY & DAD
With the team at U of A
It’d be nice to play at U of A
TROY
Just wanna hangout with the guys
Then I get an invitation
Another one from Sharpay…
GAB
Take a break
TROY
I am on my way
GAB
There’s something we all need to show you
And it cannot wait
TROY
I’ll be there in just a minute, hang on bae
GAB
Troy
TROY
Okay, okay
GAB
Spend some time with the team today
Kelsi’s got a new song to play
She’s been writing it all day
Kelsi, take it away
KELSI
Hey Troy, look
My name is Kelsi
I’m a composer
I wrote this song just
To show ya
And I
Think it’d be fine
If you and Gabriella
Would give it a try
TROY
What!
KELSI
I hear that there’s
A talent show that’s comin’ up

TROY
Uh-huh!

KELSI
And wouldn’t it be fun to show Sharpay up?

TROY
Okay!

KELSI
It’d also be cute if the whole team sang
We can show this club our game! 	 

TROY
Brava!

GAB
Take a break

TROY
Hey, that song is pretty great
GAB
We’ve been working so hard, let’s make time 
For a summer date
TROY
Gabriella, I might have to miss our date=
GAB
It’s just dinner with Sharpay’s father
There’s a pool I know…
TROY
I know
GAB
It’s actually where I work
TROY
I’d love to go
GAB
You and I can swim when the night gets dark…
TROY
I will try to get away
SHARPAY
My Troy-est Bolton
You must come now to dinner
Sit down with me and Daddy
We’ll have so much fun, you’ll see
But before we get int there
I feel I must remind you
Of how important this opportunity could be
And now that we’re here i’ll mention that you also sing
I know those college people like when you do everything
They want to hear you. Will you sing with me?
If not now, will you, please, another day?
You say
TROY & SHARPAY
“Sure, yeah, I’ll sing with you.”
Sharpay
And you can’t just break that promise. You said
TROY AND Sharpay
“Sure, yeah. … I’ll sing with you”
SHARPAY
Anyway, all this to say
I hear there’s a closed practice
With the team at U of A
My dad could get you in there
If you sing with me, but hey
I know you’re very busy
I know technically you’re working
But it could help with college, you could meet and play
TROY & SHARPAY
With the team at U of A
It’d be nice to get into U of A
GAB
Troy, get over here. It’s time for our rehearsal today! Kelsi!
KELSI
Gabriella!
WILDCATS
And the wildcats!
GAB
Troy
TROY:
Hey
KELSI
You’re a little late
GAB
Kelsi, please tell Troy, we’ve got to practice if we want to sing at this talent show
TROY
Kelsi, tell Gabby, I think if we don’t practice we’ll win anyway
GAB
…you’re not joining us? Wait
TROY
I’m afraid I cannot rehearse today
GAB
Troy, you promised you’d stay
KELSI
Please sing, just stay
GAB
Please just stay
GAB& KELS & WILDCATS
Take a break
TROY
You know I have to get into college
GAB& KELSI & WILDCATS
You have friends who want to support you
This is not the way
TROY

GAB& KELSI & WILDCATS
It’s just dinner with Sharpay’s father

TROY
I have to get into college
I can’t stop until they get me into college

Take a Break

bolton:
Ms. Darbus, you asked to see me?

darb:
I know you’re busy

bolt:
What do you need, ma’am? Ma’am?

darb:
I wanna give you a word of warning

bolt:
Ma’am, I don’t know what you heard
But whatever it is, Sharpay started it

darb:
I think Troy saw you and me  this morning

bolt:
You’re kidding

darb:
I need a favor

bolt:
Whatever you say, ma’am, I can talk to Troy a little later

darb:
Shh. Talk less 

bolt:
He’ll never guess
I know the situations grim, but I can always gaslight him 

darb:
I think that we should reassess

bolt:
Yes! We’ll find a way. Nothing really has to change

darb:
No, I think it’s best for us if we just call it quits 

bolt:
Ha! That’s a pretty good one

darb:
This is the end We’re breaking up I’m serious

bolt:
I’m sorry, what?

darb:
One last time
Relax, sing a song with me
One last time
Let’s take a break tonight
And we’ll have no choice but to say goodbye
To say goodbye
You and I

bolt:
No, ma’am, why?

darb:
I wanna talk about your family

bolt:
Ma’am, with me and my wife on the verge of divorce, is this the best time

darb:
Don’t wanna be the cause of you and Troy fighting

bolt:
But—

darb:
Get with the program, stop whining
After everything that has occurred
 The ways of your body I have learned

bolt:
As far as the students are concerned
They’ll never know, please don’t leave me alone
Please! One last time
Dribble my balls with me 
One last time
And if we have tonight
Then maybe we won’t have to say goodbye
Goodbye
You and I

darb:
Mr. Bolton, think of your family!

bolt:
No! We’ve done nothing wrong.

darb:
Your son is my starring lead

bolt:
So maybe you could be his new mom
Why do you have to say goodbye?

darb:
If I say goodbye, your family can hold strong
It outlives you when you’re gone
Like the playwrights say:
Theatre is the art form of the present: 
it exists only in the present, and then it's gone.
And It’s quite a performance we gave
You and I are just the present, no future
The curtain is closed, I’m afraid
Take a bow for the performance you gave
One last time

bolt:
One last time

darb:
Alas, that love, whose view is muffled still,
Should, without eyes, see pathways to his will!
Where shall we dine? O me! What fray was here?
Yet tell me not, for I have heard it all.
Here’s much to do with hate, but more with love.
Why, then, O brawling love! O loving hate!
O any thing, of nothing first create!
O heavy lightness! serious vanity!
Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms!
Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire,
sick health!
Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is!
This love feel I, that feel no love in this.
Dost thou not laugh?…
Why, such is love’s transgression.
Griefs of mine own lie heavy in my breast,
Which thou wilt propagate, to have it prest
With more of thine: this love that thou hast shown
Doth add more grief to too much of mine own.
Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs;

[Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers’ eyes;
Being vex’d a sea nourish’d with lovers’ tears:
What is it else? a madness most discreet,
A choking gall and a preserving sweet.]

bolt:
One last time 

ALL WOMEN:

COMPANY:

One Last Time

I did this as homework for logic class inspired by this image.

mirage meadow

Troy’s mom:

They say my husband is cheating on me and he’s slipping away
Is that true?
I wasn't aware that was something a husband could do

I'm perplexed, what other women could possibly be in his life?
Let me check his texts!

There’s no other women in town that could capture his heart

😮                                                                
Ms. Darbus?

I know her, that can't be
That's that little hag who sang to me

All those years ago, what was it, ‘05?
That whore man, I’m going to bury him alive

Tensions rise, marriages fall
I should’ve know he wasn’t playing ball

All those times, they had their fun
I will tear my husband into pieces
Then his coaching days are done

Ha ha ha ha ah (maniacal laughter)

Mr. Jack Bolton… good luck

I Know Her (I Know Him)

[ZEKE:]
How does Troy Bolton the star baller
Affectionate boyfriend of the lifeguard
Finder of the summer jobs
Ardently abuse his new promosh
Destroy his reputation?
Welcome, folks, to

[Zeke/Company:]
The Evans administration!

[Zeke:]
Sharpay knows higher-ups, arranges Troy’s scholarship

[Ryan:]
Sharpay is out of control, now this is a dictatorship

[Zeke:]
Sharpay fires Ryan
Privately calls him the f slur in her taunts

[Troy:]
Say what?!

[Zeke:]
Ryan posts on myspace his response

[Ryan:]
Sit down, Shar, you untalented c*unt

[Troy:] (to himself)
Ryan’s not gay…?

[Gabriella:]
You should’ve been at the baseball game
We had a blast

[Ryan:]
It was so fun (ad lib)
Gabriella’s mom makes the best brownies-

[Troy:]
Yeah, I’ve had ‘em. 😡

The Evans Administration (The Adams Administration)

[TROY]
Gabriella…..
Ryan…………..
Brownies?
What is this?

I have been suspicious for the past five minutes
I am finding it so difficult to mind my own business
I noticed you and Ryan are acting very intimate together

[GABRIELLA]
Is that what you think? Are you done?

[TROY]
I know he looks so hot doing his little jazz squares
But beyond that I’m not sure how him and I would compare
To seek another guy, to stray from our relationship
I never thought you’d be the one I’d have this conversation with
A theater kid homewrecking, can’t believe my eyes
Tell me the truth, don’t give me your lies
I hope that you enjoyed him, hope you had your fun
Ya best fess up or we are done done

[GAB]
Troy, how can you say this while you’re running off with Sharpay?

[CHAD, RYAN, ZEKE?]
Sharpay

[GAB]
You know nothing, you haven’t even noticed that Ryan is gay

[THE BOYS]
Is Gay

[GAB]
If Chad can prove I never cheated on you
Do you promise to stop thinking something so untrue?

[CHAD]
No one else was in the room where it happened

[GAB]
Is this okay?

[CHAD]
Um, yes, he said
[RYAN]
Yeah sure whatever

“Look Chad I get that you are too scared to dance
So I think that it’s time to put your fear up to the test
If I win this baseball quest then you and all your friends
Will have to bring your zest to the talent fest”

[TROY]
Whoah

[CHAD]
He courted me
Escorted me away and when he had me at the lockers
That’s when Ryan rewarded me
Orally
It was disorderly
I’m sorry you had to find out this way
But I hope you can support me

As you can see I kept a record of every tryst in my little diary
Check it again, our homosexuality is consistent, see?
Ry never kissed a mouth that wasn’t mine
So don’t come after my lover this time
We have no reason for shame
Ryan is no common heathen, though I admit he’s got game
As you can see he has done nothing of hetero action
Are my answers to your satisfaction?

[TROY]
My God

[RYAN]
Chad, let’s go

[GAB]
So?

[ZEKE]
You can’t know if you don’t show

[GAB?]
Troy
Sharpay’s trying to turn you against me
How can you not know?

Whatever Troy, rumors only grow
And we both know what we know

We Know

In the middle of a golf course
There is quiet
For just a moment
The green grass.

When I auditioned for the musicale
I almost ruined the team
I had to sing,
And they couldn’t see my side.  
I played my way out,
Played the game so that they could see….
I played my way out
I looked up and East High had its eyes on me.

The Evans’ came around
Partial strangers
Moved to kindness by my talents
Did enough for me to get opportunities
To be college bound.
I sang in the Spring Music-AL,                                
I led my team to championships                              
I worked harder than Coach Bolton, himself.        
I sang Gabriella love songs until she fell               
I got all my friends hired, I defended them well.
And in the face of confusion and resistance
My talents wrote my future into existence.
And when my foes moved against me with persistence,    
I picked up a ball, I went the fucking distance! 
   
In the baseball diamond
There is Ryan
For just a moment
And also .. Chad?
When I was seventeen a summer job
Destroyed my team,
I was a clown,
I told so many lies. 

Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (I'll sing my way out)
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (sing every note and win back my team.)
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, wait (east high has its eyes on you)
I'll sing my way out
Overwhelm them with melody 
This is the time for integrity, this is how 
I can prove they can bet on me

Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet

Bet On It (Hurricane)

Lava Springs Employees can no longer perform

[ZEKE]

[Sharpay]

and Ryan rehearsing the other day
They were conspiring against me 
The Star Dazzle Competition

away from east high
So Fulton got the Wildcats out of my show

[Kelsi/Zeke/etc.]

Struggling here to do

[Ryan]

[ENSEMBLE]
Oooooh!

[RYAN]
I know my classmates like I know my own mind
You will never find anyone as talented or kind
I trained my classmates to dance every single night 
They deserve their moment to shine this time
Put what we had aside
I’m standing at their side
You could never be satisfied
God, I hope you’re satisfied

[wildcats]
We’re never gon’ win Star Dazzle now

Sharpay Planned this

[ALL]
Have you read this?

[Kelsi&chad]
Sharpay’s acting like Troy’s sugar daddy…

[COMPANY]
Poor Gabby!

The Evans Planned This (The Reynolds Pamphlet)

[BOLT DAD:]
Meet the latest recruit of U of Albuquerque!
I shouldn't brag, but, he’s worthy of that college jersey!
The ballers say he’s got the same virtuosity and skills as his pops!
And I must say that’s prob’ly where the resemblance stops!
I was having an affair, but I think that’s over
Gotta focus on my son, get him some exposure
So he’ll carry on my legacy with pride
He used to hear me say
That someday he would

[Ensemble:]
Blow us all away

[ZEKE:]
Boys, I'm looking for our captain Troy Bolton
Heard a rumor last week, he might find revoltin’
Something bout his father and Ms. D by word of mouth
Don’t know what’s up with that, but I’ll figure it out

[CHAD:]
I saw him just in the hallway with a couple of jocks
He was going to the stage

[ZEKE:]
Well, I'll go visit him, brah

[CHAD:]
Don’t make him distraught

[ZEKE:]
I guess it might be a shock
And if he needs a snack, I made some bagels and lox

[Both:]
OK!

[Company:]
Blow us all away!

[ZEKE:]
Troy!

[TROY:]
Huh?

[ZEKE:]
Troy!

[TROY:]
What? I'm tryin' to learn the show!

[ZEKE:]
We really need to talk about Ms. Darbus and your father though
I don’t wanna say anything that isn’t true
Your father's been cheating since before Act 2

[Ensemble:]
Ooooooooooh!

[TROY:]
What the fuck?

[ZEKE:]
Yeah, I didn’t know how to tell you
But I thought you should know

[TROY:]
I just can’t believe this
I need to see my dad and find out the sitch

[ZEKE:]
good luck
And Take a bagel on your way out

[TROY:]
Dad, I just cannot believe the shit I heard about you
Mom wouldn’t let this slide and I am not about to

[DAD:]
Slow down

[TROY:]
I heard you slept with Ms. Darbus
She’s not even that hot
And on top of that, how could you do this to me and mom?

[DAD:]
Can you keep quiet just to keep the peace?

[TROY:]
You need to apologize, I think you should see a priest

[DAD:]
What have i done?

[TROY:]
You’re destroying this family

[BOTH:]
Everything about this is insanity

[TROY:]
Alright
So this is what you're gonna do:
Stand there like a man until mom is in front of you
When the time comes, maybe compliment her hair
This will soften the blow of the whole affair

[DAD:]
But what if she wants a divorce?
Then I'm a goner

[TROY:]
No, she'll understand you’re truly a man a honor

DAD:
To ruin a marriage, that is something you can’t shake
Troy, your mother couldn’t take this heartbreak

[TROY:]
Dad

[DAD:]
I’ll tell her
I don’t want this weighing on your conscience

[TROY:]
Okay, you got this

[DAD:]
Come back home after practice

[TROY:]
Good luck dad, be smart
Fix this shitshow 

[DAD:]
My name is Coach
I am a Bolton
And I'm a little nervous, but I can't show it
I'm sorry, that I cheated on you, wife
It was a simple mistake and only a few times
Mrs. Bolton! Can you ever forgive me?

[MOM:]
How could you do this to me
You hoe

DAD:
Why do you have your pistol

[MOM:]
I’ve had it with men
You better start running, I’m counting to ten

[Ensemble:]
Count to ten!

[DAD:]
Look me in the eye, please don’t do this
I really think that we can talk through this

MOM:
I hope you had fun with Ms. Darbus

DAD:

Troy, come in. They brought him in a half an hour ago. He lost a lot of blood on the way over.

[TROY]
Is he alive?

[CHAD]
Yes, but you have to understand
The bullet entered where it won’t kill him immediately but still pretty soon

[TROY]
Can I see him, please?

They’re doing everything they can, but the wound was
Already infected when he arrived—
