A/n: The play's going to be like the movie, except Seasons of Love is going to be after Angel's funeral. The auditions…

"Ok is everyone ready?" Mrs. Darbus said.

"Yes!" Sharpay said.

"Good! Now we will do this in proper order. First up are the auditions for Benny. But first I'm pairing up groups."

The gang's group was the gang with the exception of Kelsi in another group.

Zeke went up first and aced it. Then Troy and Gabriella, then Melissa and Ryan did theirs.

A/n: Melissa's lines are in italics, and Ryan is normal font, Both are regular and underlined.

The music started.

The samples won't delay, but the cable-

There's another way Say something – anything

Test - one, two, three-

Anything but that

This is weird

It's weirdVery weird

Fuckin' weirdI'm so mad that I don't know what to do, fighting with microphones, freezing down to my bones, and to top it all off I'm with youFeel like going insane? Got a fire in your brain? And you're thinking of drinking gasoline?

As a matter of fact-Honey, I know this act, It's called the "Tango Maureen". The Tango Maureen, it's a dark, dizzy merry-go-round, as she keeps you danglingYou're wrong

You're heart she is manglingIt's different with meAnd you toss and you turn, 'Cause her cold eyes can burn, Yet you yearn and you churn and reboundI think I know what you meanThe Tango Maureen!

Has she ever pouted her lips, And called you "Pookie"?NeverHave you ever doubted a kiss or two?This is spooky, Did you swoon when, She walked through the door?Every time - so be cautious

Did she moon over other boys - ?More than moon

I'm getting nauseousWhere'd you learn to tango?

With the French Ambassador's daughter in her dorm room at Miss Porter's. And you?With Nannette Hammelfeild, The Rabbi's daughter at the Scarsdale Jewish Community Center, It's hard to do this backwardsYou should try it in heels!

(music break.)

She cheatedShe cheated

Maureen cheatedFuckin' cheatedI'm defeated, I should give up right nowGotta look on the bright side, With all of your mightI'd fall for her still anyhow

When you're dancing her dance, You don't stand a chance, Her grip of romance makes you fallSo you think, might as well...

...dance a tango to hell"At least I'll have tangoed at all" The Tango Maureen, Gotta dance 'til your diva is through, You pretend to believe her 'cause in the end - you can't leave her, But the end it will come, Still you have to play dumb, 'Til you're glum and you bum, And turn blue

Why do we love when she's mean?And she can be obscene, My MaureenThe Tango Maureen!

"It seems our new students can sing well. That was very good." Mrs. Darbus said.

The rest of the group did their singing.

"Great job everyone! Cast list will be posted on Monday."

Then next day Sharpay, Melissa, and Taylor tried for chem. Club, at the same time Kelsi tried for basketball. The Wednesday Melissa and Gabriella tried for cheerleading, Melissa was surprisingly good.

Monday was the day all of the clubs revealed who was in.
