Barney Live! The Search For The Barney Bag is a tour based on the 1994 concert, Barney Live! In New York City.
Plot
Barney and his friends take the stage to delight and entertain everyone.
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.

- The Winkster has more freerange in this version and his balcony scenes are replaced by him going into the audience.
