The Muppet Show - 213: Rudolf Nureyev - Backstage #5/“Top Hat, White Tie and Tails” (1978)

Sam apologizes to Rudolf for all of the things that Kermit has “forced“ Rudolf to do on the show. Rudolf protests, saying, “I wanted to do them. And it was fun!“ Sam is shocked to hear it and even more shocked to see Rudolf dressed, not in a ballet costume, but in a tuxedo, all ready for his final number... The Muppet cast joins a tap-dancing Rudolf, all of them decked out in top hats, white ties and tails, to sing “Top Hat, White Tie and Tails“... Naturally.
