There’s a whole lot of moving and shaking going on for the cast of Grease: Live!. 

In exclusive behind-the-scenes footage for the Fox production, which airs Sunday, Jan. 31 at 7 p.m. ET, stars Julianne Hough, Carly Rae Jepsen and more show off their fancy footwork. “People are a lot more familiar with live dancing so it’s making sure we have enough dynamic to keep the modern viewer interested in what the dance is, so it’s really — I mean we’re giving them a workout,” choreographer Zach Woodlee explains.

But the Grease: Live! cast is clearly up for the task. “So many of them have done Broadway shows and live performances so they’re already set to know what to expect from it,” says Woodlee. “So they started working from a different place and  immediately were fully singing, fully committed, it’s been pretty incredible.”
