Things to know about the episode:
- Sharon Delaney discussed this episode while conducting a slide show at the Cherry Hill Convention (08-29/30-98). She stated that it was an homage to the movie FOOTLOOSE about a village that had outlawed dancing. Regarding the return appearance of Tara, the juvenile delinquent, she was reported to have said, "I don't know what she's doing there, but if dancing's been outlawed, she's probably dancing." She also mentioned that the dance, the limbo, is featured in the episode. Since ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT also showed clips from this episode, it became the most pre-promoted episode of the fourth season.
- At the Dearborn Con (08-22-98), Sharon Delaney stated that Xena does the limbo in TALE OF TWO MUSES and "something that nobody would think Lucy would ever do."
Things to look out for:
- Watch as Xena fills in Autolycus on what's going on - between their heads and behind them, you can see Gabrielle filling in Tara at the same time.
