Wait, the provided synopsis is very short: "With an exciting new culturally diverse and gender balanced cast, over 50 songs and a revamped set, 'Ready, Steady, Wiggle!' continues to expand on the high-quality children’s entertainment that The Wiggles have become known for worldwide."
The prompt asks for a 160-220 word summary of this season's narrative arc.
Problem: The provided text does not contain a narrative arc for Season 12. It only contains a brief description of "Ready, Steady, Wiggle!" featuring a new cast, 50+ songs, and a revamped set.
