One of the people who donated $500 to the Camp Wanatachi cause and had a Skype conversation with Bridget wrote about it on their LiveJournal. Apparently, Bridget even stayed a bit longer than the 30 minutes she had agreed to. She sounds like the genuinely lovely person we all had her figured to be anyway! Here is the link: http://community.livejournal.com/legendofseeker/741760.html

We at Her Blue Eyes received an e-mail today notifying us of a online store called Shed 11 that is auctioning off 5 genuine LotS costumes on eBay. They are wonderful pieces and would make any collector proud. We’d like to thank Michael for sending us the e-mail that alerted us!

Shed 11 can be found at: http://www.shed11.com/shop/

After clicking on the above link, you can click the heading “eBay auctions.” This will take you to Shed 11’s eBay storefront. Then, on the left, where it says “Store Categories: Other” click on that and that will take you to the five items. A highlight of their auctions is the entire white Mord’Sith outfit worn by Denna! Good luck! Happy bidding!

You cam also purchase Legend of the Seeker-esque costumes from the Shed 11 site as well.

We have here links to a few LotS props being auctioned off on eBay. I will list what each item is above the link.

1. A Mord’Sith costume, looks very nice and legitimate:

3. Captain Arturis gauntlets from the episode “Broken.” Seller again includes pictures of the gauntlets in action:

Good luck, if you decide to bid on these items!

This turned up in my inbox today and let me just say that this individual is crazy talented. So head on over to YouTube and check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv_nz4s7cKo

The Camp Wanatachi pledge drive met its goal and will be moving forward, thanks to the generous help of a number of people. Six people pledged enough for the half hour Skype conversation with Bridget. If any of you are out there, we’d love love love a write up of how it goes! You can read about their success getting the needed funding here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1757805840/camp-wanatachi-a-new-musical/posts

This Sword of Truth was apparently used in the fight scenes by Craig for all the fighting in Season 1. The seller is Bridget’s stunt double once again and some of the proceeds will go to help Child Cancer. It’s a bit pricey but if you can afford it, it would sure make a heck of an addition to anyone’s collection! Here’s the item: http://item.ebay.com/230491469830

There’s a D’Haran sword being sold on eBay, at least allegedly. The person selling it claims to have worked on the show and it is, in fact, coming from New Zealand. I can’t completely verify the validity of this auction but it seems like it could be the real deal. If you want to check out the details and maybe place a bid, the item can be found here: http://item.ebay.com/330444660973

Also, a whip is being sold. Again, no real guarantees that it came from the show are there, like a certificate of authenticity, but it’s coming from New Zealand as well and the seller claims to have purchased it from the creators of the show at a prop auction. So, if you might like this, you can find it here: http://item.ebay.com/160446496464

Best. Lesbian. Week. Ever. (June 18, 2010)

THIS JUST IN: THE CREATOR OF CAMP WANATACHI WANTS YOUR LESBIAN CAMP STORIES
Over the past few months, a considerable buzz has surrounded the musical Camp Wanatachi, a quirky story about an all-girls Christian summer camp in which two of the campers fall in love.

When it debuted at New York’s Fringe Festival last year, Time Out New York called it “refreshing and uplifting and gave it four stars. New York Magazine dubbed it a hilariously subversive piece of theater.” Even we had something to say about it.

Produced by Bridget Regan of Legend of the Seeker and Ian Pai, co-founder of Blue Man Group and musical director of Fischerspooner, the zany musical is set to forward-sounding electro tracks with whimsical yet hormone-driven lyrics that evoke the frenetic and confusing but often exhilarating time called adolescence. It features beats by hip-hop producer Machinedrum and was arranged by up and coming composer Conrad Winslow.

The rest of the article/interview can be found at the following link, however, there is adult content, so view at your own discretion. Also, they are looking for stories about lesbian experiences at summer camp, whether as a camper or a counselor. So, well, if you’ve got any stories that you want to share, the details are after the interview. Here it is: http://www.afterellen.com/blwe/06-18-10?page=0,1
