Alan Bersten and the Savannah Bananas May Be Planning Something Together

Hello everyone! Alan Bersten sent a very public message to the Savannah Bananas on Instagram this week. His caption read, “Somebody call the @thesavbananas,” and no other context came with it. People started speculating almost immediately.

Bersten is one of the most familiar faces on Dancing with the Stars, the long-running network show that has brought ballroom dancing into living rooms for years. He’s served as a professional dancer and choreographer on the series for multiple seasons. Week after week, he helps craft the kind of performances that keep fans glued to their screens.

His work on the show has made him well known among dance fans. Beyond his Dancing with the Stars seasons, he’s stayed active with live events and projects outside the ballroom. This kind of outreach to the Savannah Bananas fits that pattern.

The Savannah Bananas are a baseball entertainment group with a fanbase that stretches well beyond traditional baseball audiences. Their shows are closer to a variety production than a standard sporting event. Routines include choreographed dance sequences, acrobatics, and audience participation. Those performances have earned enormous reach online. They tour regularly, sell out large venues, and draw crowds that span a wide range of entertainment interests. Their Banana Ball shows operate under their own modified rules, making the games as much a performance as a competition. The format has drawn comparisons to the Harlem Globetrotters more than once.

That crossover appeal is part of what makes a potential collaboration with Bersten so easy to picture. Both acts are built around making performance something worth watching and worth sharing. Bersten brings technical dance training and years of television experience. The Bananas bring live-event energy and a young, socially active fanbase. A creative partnership between them would cover ground that neither has explored on their own.

The post earned more than 7,200 likes. For a caption this short on detail, that kind of response is worth noting. It suggests the idea alone was enough to get people genuinely excited.

Neither Bersten nor the Savannah Bananas have publicly confirmed any plans as of Thursday. The Bananas haven’t responded on Instagram. But Bersten didn’t leave things vague. He tagged their account directly and put the message in front of his entire audience. That’s a deliberate move, not an accident.

The Savannah Bananas have a history of bringing in outside collaborators and expanding what their shows look like from tour to tour. Their format is built around high-energy spectacle. Someone with Bersten’s choreography background and his live television experience could add something genuinely new to what they’re already doing.

On Bersten’s side, Dancing with the Stars occupies a significant part of his year. His off-season work has included live appearances and projects that take his skills somewhere different from the ballroom. A collaboration with the Savannah Bananas would be a big, visible step in that direction.

Any conversations happening between the two parties are private for now. It could be a one-time guest appearance during a Bananas tour stop, a choreographed segment, or something larger that takes longer to put together. Nobody knows yet.

What Bersten has done is make the idea public. He’s put his name and the Savannah Bananas’ name together, in front of an audience that loves watching great performance. The ball is in the Bananas’ court now. Everyone else is waiting to see what they do with it.
