The correct answer is "Add 'Dance' to the beginning of the fragment".

By adding "dance", you get a complete sentence that conveys a meaning, while without it, it is a subordinate clause used to denote time at which an action might happen. This makes the sentence: "Dance till the chimes of the clock strike midnight."
