Since 2006 Sahara Herald Shepherd and Kristen Francis have been bringing Sydney-siders together for Legs 11. It’s a sophisticated, intimate and relaxed evening of live entertainment and fine fare beneath the stars at the Domain all in support of the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
After considerable heartfelt deliberation the ladies have decided that Legs 11 will not take place this year for personal reasons. 2008 has been a trying year for co-producer Sahara Herald Shepherd whose mother is not only an inspiration, but also a pillar of strength to her family as she fights her own breast cancer battle.
“It’s one of the strange ironies of life that when Kristen and I started Legs 11 my mother had not yet developed breast cancer. Her battle has now made the show much more personal for us,” says Sahara.
Don’t despair Legs 11 fans, the festival will be back in 2009 for bigger and brighter things! To reminisce about last year’s very special installment, check out FasterLouder’s photo gallery from the event.
