A day behind the scenes of 'Dancing with the Stars,' TV's biggest celebrity dance competition
BBC Worldwide Productions
America's most-watched dancing competition gave Business Insider a behind-the-scenes look at one of its biggest episodes of the season, Disney Night. An ode to the countless fantastical characters created by the ABC parent company, Disney Night featured the competitors and professionals tackling some of the most beloved musical memories in movie history.
"Dancing with the Stars" executive producer Joe Sungkur told Business Insider recently that it takes "a huge army of people" and a large amount of communication to pull together a night like that.
"Whether it be from a technical point of view or a creative point of view all have to come together so that we can really make sure that a unified vision is presented and that everyone is on the same page," Sungkur said.
BBC Worldwide Productions, which produces "Dancing with the Stars" for ABC, showed us what goes into Disney Night.
