| Meanwhile, in the dance studio, [[Celina]] is dancing along to the "[[Body Dance]]" music video (playing on a [[Nologo]] TV set), and she's confused when Big Bird and the kids arrive. Big Bird explains that it's [[Radar]]'s birthday today and he wants to have a dance party here. With some hesitance, Celina agrees to let them do so. She asks the kids what the first dance will be, but Big Bird points out that Radar should choose since it's his birthday. Radar wants to do "[[A Very Simple Dance]]," so Big Bird checks to make sure everyone's feet are ready, and Celina leads the others in the dance.

Titlegetupanddance

Get Up and Dance is a Sesame Street direct-to-video compilation released on January 28, 1997.

Big Bird decides to hold a birthday party for Radar in the dance studio around the corner. More kids than Sesame Street Muppets are seen in the video as the plot moves along by the kids suggesting a dance, Celina explaining how to do it, and the song or video plays. Most of the archive segments are intercut with framing scenes of the kids dancing along.

The DVD version includes a CD sampler of "Happy Tappin' with Elmo," "Doin' the Pigeon," and "Lambaba" from the album Platinum All-Time Favorites.
