Chad
Chad
Danforth is Troy Bolton's best friend and a dedicated member of the East High
basketball team. He's also involved in baseball, as well as track and field.
Worried that Troy's involvement with both Gabriella and the musical auditions
will hurt the team's chances of winning the championship game, Chad and the
Wildcats work with Taylor McKessie and the smart kids to split them up. However,
after seeing how much this hurts Troy, Chad realizes that friendship is more
important than winning.
In High School Musical's sequel, Chad happily begins the summer as a waiter/golf
caddy at Lava Springs Country Club with Troy, Taylor, and the rest of his
friends. Things start to go downhill, however, when Troy starts being taken in
by the "good life," leaving his friends behind. Though frustrated and angry with
the guy who is supposed to be his best friend, Chad decides to expand his
horizons and work with Ryan Evans and the rest of the Wildcats to put on a
spectacular staff talent show act. -
