Plot Edit
Barney and his friends take the stage to delight and entertain everyone at Radio City Music Hall. They all work together to make a special surprise for the audience using items from "The Barney Bag". But before they are able to share it, a new visitor, The Winkster, sneaks away with the bag! The Winkster doesn't know how to make friends. Throughout the show, the kids are trying to catch The Winkster and teach him that all you have to do is ask in order to make friends of your own. Also, the chase takes everyone to "Barney's Imagination Circus" with fun-loving clowns and some dancing bears. After the circus ends, the chase continues until Winkster confesses that he took the bag for everyone to play with him. After his confession, he remembers to use the words "Please" and "Thank You," and then becomes friends with Barney, Baby Bop, BJ, the Winkster and the kids. Barney then unveils the surprise to the audience and then asks them to use their imaginations to make the heart bigger. After the unveiling of the the bigger heart, Barney, BJ, Baby Bop, Winkster, and the kids wrap up the show with "Everyone is Special".

Trivia

 * This live show marked:
 * The only major live show, not to tour.
 * The first time on video that Barney is partially-performed by Carey Stinson. Stinson was Barney's Double, used only for "quick changes" as while the Barney costume from "Barney's Talent Show", "Barney's Fun & Games", "Barney's 1-2-3-4 Seasons", "Barney's Once Upon A Time", "Barney's Sense-Sational Day" and "Barney's Musical Scrapbook" is used for (Barney transforming into a peanut salesman, for example). Stinson would later return to be Barney's main costume actor in some live performances, Barney's Big Surprise and Barney's Musical Castle, and on the television series starting in 2002.
 * The first appearance of Carlos who would later return as a main character in Season 3.
 * BJ's first concert.
 * The only live show where "I Love You" wasn't sung.
 * The final actual uses of the 1993-1994 Baby Bop costume and the 1994 BJ costume. They would later be used in Barney books and other live appearances.
 * All of the dialogue (including that of Barney and the other dinos) was live for every performance, unlike future Barney shows. The songs, however, were prerecorded.
 * Although this stage show has its very own soundtrack, with all 26 songs (including the ones in the medleys), some of the songs from this concert were also featured in the Barney's Favorites Vol. 2 album. Specifically, the live version of Barney Theme Song, My Yellow Blankey, The Barney Bag, BJ's Song and My Aunt Came Back.
 * On the screener copy to this, the title was called "Barney Live! at Radio City".
 * During "Please and Thank You", BJ lip-syncs to the lyrics, though he does not sing the song.
 * All the Video "Barney in Concert", "Barney's Big Surprise" and "Barney's Musical Castle" were also featured bonus videos in this DVD release, as well as the "Barney's Colorful World!" being the bonus episode.
 * After the "Please and Thank You" song, a camera angle shows Kelly giving her sign to someone backstage.
 * According to a Variety review, Min was absent from the March 6 performance.
 * A storybook of this video was released by Scholastic in 1996. In 2015, it was re-released by Publications International.
