Dancers Beware! Movie Crew searches for "harem girls"

7/15/2009

The movie "Talos" is being filmed in Roanoke and the crew is actively searching for women to play "harem girls."

Several years ago a troupe member and I auditioned for what we were told was a barbarian-martial arts movie in need of bellydancers for a very tasteful representation.  We didn't have access to the script prior to the audition, but were given a copy when we finished our set.  After the audition, I read the screenplay and was horrified.  The Harem scene featured topless women and the speaking  parts were women trying to lure soldiers in to service them since it had been so long since their master's last visit.

Needless to say, I did not return the call when it came.

Now, years later, I learn that filming is on and they're still looking for their harem girls.

So, beware dancers.  They are not *really* looking for bellydancers.
