I got this press release through Garth Raleigh, who is one of my most prolific sources, and I am very happy to share it with you all well in advance so you can get your outfits together in time.
Garth also told me the LGBT fae community is one of the happiest and most drama-free he has encountered in SecondLife.
"Every year
a small group of creators get together to create a week long celebration of
everything GLBT. Our aim is to promote
acceptance of all positive sexual orientations of all genders. All sexualities are very welcome to our
festival to raise awareness of these issues worldwide - all on a unique and
intriguing land with creations and magic never seen before from our very
talented fantasy and fae designers.
When they
were first told, fairy tales were not innocent stories for children. They often
dealt with themes that were definitely adult in nature. This year's
presentations will cover the erotic, twisted or hidden side of the tales we've
all grown up with. These are not your grandmother's fairy tales!
The Press
Book will be published soon with lots more information and photos. Details of live music performances to be
announced.
Whinge
& Pluckett - Karalia Halostar & Greville Oh, will be presenting a
completely new show this year, a sequel to "The Fairy Who Loses His
Wings" called "The Fascination of Cemanus".
Come and
immerse yourselves in legend and wonder, ancient archetypes we all hold deep in
our psyches... the curious, the strange..the challenging...the erotic! Our fae
nature resonates to these strong and subtle primal earth energies; these
ancient powers.

Our
Sponsors are an important element in our event. We welcome support from any
group or organization that wishes to help promote understanding and acceptance
of GLBT lifestyles. The celebration site will prominently display sponsor logos
and contact information .
We fight
for global GLBT rights - there are still countries where gays are attacked and
tortured and where being gay is punishable by imprisonment or death. We are glad the movement for marriage
equality is growing as more and more countries embrace and champion it. We will get there, GLBT people will be
accepted everywhere - we will demand it as a fundamental human right and have a
fabulous time doing just that.!
GRATEFUL THANKS TO ALL!
Greville Oh"
