CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS

Troy Bolton is the most popular kid at East High, the star of the basketball team and Gabriella's boyfriend.

Martha Cox is the fun-loving, big-personality girl of the group. She loves to dance, specifically hip-hop.  The role does have solo singing lines, but the vocal quality is not as important as the character. Female Vocal range top: C5 Vocal range bottom: B3

Fulton is the efficient club manager of Lava Springs. When it comes to the Wildcats, he doesn't have difficulty being in charge, but Sharpay is a different story. He is overly concerned with pleasing the daughter of the country club's owner. It isn't until Sharpay pushes him too far that Fulton is able to stand up to her.  While he does sing with the ensemble in a few songs, his solo lines are to be spoken, so acting skills should be the priority.
