what would happen if savion glover rejoins the main sesame street cast as savion in season 57 which current cast members would be with him and what would the storyline be with savion opening up his tap dance studio
If Savion Glover rejoined the main Sesame Street cast as “Savion” in season 57, he’d most likely fit into a music-and-movement arc built around tap, rhythm, and confidence. The story would probably pair him with the current core human and Muppet cast, while giving kids a simple throughline: learn a skill, practice it, then share it with the neighborhood.
Who would likely be with him
The modern Sesame Street ensemble is centered on familiar residents like Elmo, Abby Cadabby, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Grover, Oscar, Bert, Ernie, Telly, and Count von Count, along with human cast members such as Alan, Nina, and others depending on the season’s lineup.
Because Savion already appeared on Sesame Street as Savion in earlier years, a return would feel like a natural “mentor” revival rather than a brand-new character.
A plausible grouping would be:
- Elmo, as the eager student.
- Abby Cadabby, who would love the magic-and-rhythm angle.
- Big Bird, who would bring warmth and curiosity.
- Grover, who would turn lessons into comic attempts.
- Cookie Monster, for a rhythm-and-snack gag.
- Nina and/or Alan, to help ground the community-story side.
What the storyline would be
The cleanest plot is that Savion opens a tap dance studio on Sesame Street and turns it into a neighborhood gathering place. In Sesame Street terms, that studio would not just be a business; it would be a place where kids learn listening, counting, balance, patience, and self-expression. A likely episode arc would go like this:
- Savion arrives with a suitcase, tap shoes, and a big idea.
- The street helps him find a space for the studio.
- The first class goes badly at first because everyone is too loud, too fast, or too shy.
- Savion teaches that rhythm comes from practice, attention, and feeling the beat.
- The finale becomes a small performance for the whole street.
That kind of plot fits the show’s long-running pattern of turning a real-world skill into a social lesson, and Savion’s earlier Sesame Street history makes him especially suited for a tap-and-rhythm storyline.
Why it would work
Savion’s presence would give the season a strong arts-education angle, which Sesame Street has used for decades through music, movement, and community- building. His tap studio could also create repeated mini-stories: teaching beginners, hosting a recital, fixing a broken floorboard, or helping a nervous student perform.
It would also let the show mix comedy and heart. Grover could overcomplicate the steps, Elmo could ask a million questions, and Big Bird could model trying again after a mistake.
A simple episode idea
“Savion’s Tap Shop” opens with the whole street hearing a surprising new rhythm from an empty storefront. By the end, the neighbors help transform it into a studio where every character contributes one beat, one step, and one cheer.
Likely tone
The tone would be upbeat, encouraging, and very kid-friendly. Instead of drama, the conflict would be small and solvable: too much noise, too little practice, or nerves before the first recital. The payoff would be a community win, with Savion teaching that talent grows through repetition and joy.
