Garnet and Gold Musical Theatre Society, also called G&G, is a Mount Allison University student group that traces its history back to 1932.

For more than 30 years, the group has staged a production annually, except during the 2020-21 season, because of COVID-related public health measures.

Now they’re back with a production of High School Musical On Stage, the theatre version of the 2006 Disney Channel TV-movie.

The show kicks off tonight and continues until Saturday at Convocation Hall. Tickets are available on Eventbrite.

On Monday, CHMA spoke by videoconference to some of the students behind the new production.

Here's that conversation with Ashton Leal and Breagh Langille, who are playing the lead roles in High School Musical On Stage, along with producer Amanda Godin:
