They were on the field, but then suddenly they're on a stage and bowing.

And then it ends with the curtains closing: a sweet, reflective farewell to a beloved series.

...OR IS IT?!

According to the fan theory, this final moment isn't just a cute goodbye, but proof that the entire series was one GIANT high school musical.

Stay with me. So we thought we were watching musical about a bunch of high schoolers putting on a musical. Yes. Clear. Obvious.

BUT what if the ENTIRE High School Musical series was actually ONE super long high school musical about a musical about a bunch of high schoolers putting on a musical...?

The entire series is one musical! We just watched one entire musical with three acts!

LIKE WHAT?!

It's like a musical INSIDE a musical INSIDE a musical!

Did High School Musical do inception before Inception did inception?!?

If so, please move over, Christopher Nolan. Because the real king of nonlinear storytelling is Kenny Ortega!

GO WILD CATS!
