Rare footage from the Sesame Street season 18 cast and crew wrap party. 1986 When the Sesame Street cast and crew finish taping a season, they traditionally celebrate with a wrap party where they have dinner, watch a reel of outtakes and highlights from the season, and enjoy live skits that often poke fun at the show. In addition, toasts are exchanged, and awards and bottles of wine are presented to people who got engaged, married or had babies since the last party. In the earliest days of the show, Richard Hunt took it upon himself to provide entertainment for the parties, for one party, cameraman Frank Biondo was given the role of introducing one of Hunt's acts and from then on, he served as the organizer and emcee for the live show, eventually he was granted a full stage so they could set up the show. Includes an "adult version" of the song People in your neighborhood, sung by Bob McGrath.
