Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure

One year after the events of High School Musical 3, Sharpay was back at Lava Springs doing a charity show, and got the attention of a casting director from New York. At first her father Vance wasn't convinced that she could handle herself alone and away from Albuquerque yet. But proving that she's determined that she could, Vance lets her go to New York, under one condition: She has a month to be in the show and that she could take care of herself, or come back to work for him at Lava Springs.

Once she got to New York, the penthouse which she rented didn't allow dogs as she came here with her male dog, Boi. Upon sitting on her luggage in the streets, she ran into a guy named Peyton Leverett who was a film student at NYU. He was assigned to watch over her by her mother. Peyton offered Sharpay a room in a studio building in which he was living in as well. As the days went by she became the star of his movie.

When Sharpay got to the Casting Director, she was shocked to find out that he wanted her dog Boi, not her. Thinking that Boi's success could help her out in the long run, she lets her dog audition, however another dog, a female, by the name of Countess and her owner Roger auditioned as well and got an equal response as well. Considering Roger to be her and Boi's biggest rival, the two got into a sabotaging contest to see who would be the chosen dog in the upcoming play which is starred by an actress named Amber Lee Adams.

Not getting anywhere with the sabotage game, Sharpay spoke to Amber, who wanted to hire Sharpay as her assistant. Sharpay was forced to do tasks like signing her autographs, carrying her stuff, even cleaning her bathroom. Throughout this she and Peyton had a falling out which led her to no longer be the star of his movie. Upon eavesdropping she finds out that Amber was not at all what she believed Amber to be as she was a spoiled obnoxious actress. She eavesdropped on her and the director as she wanted the dog part taken out and that she manipulated Sharpay just to get her out of her hair. Feeling completely used, she returns back to Peyton to make up with him, in which he agrees to let her still be the star in his film.

Upon the day of a live rehearsal with Amber Lee Adams' pet fan club, Sharpay got to Roger and told him about Amber's intentions. They worked together to let her fan club see her true colors as she never was a dog lover. This resulted in Amber losing her fans and quitting the play, which resulted the play director to fire Sharpay and Boi.

The month was finally up and Sharpay was ready to head back to Albuquerque, Sharpay had to go get Boi's things at the theater. As the crew of the play were on the verge of ending production, Peyton showed everyone the clip of Sharpay performing one of the play's musical numbers. Amazed at her performance, The director wanted Sharpay to save the show by starring in it. She agrees only to let Boi and Countess split the part of the dog role equally which pleases Roger as well. Successful at performing in a show Sharpay's dream was finally coming true and she and Peyton share a kiss to celebrate. On the night of the play, her parents were there to see her perform as she was successful in performing on a stage in Broadway in New York.
