The SL Globe Theatre was created as a themed attraction as part of the literary theme of sLiterary's Cookie island.
It was built as an environment to foster both live chat discussion, and live voice readings. It has a full backstage and basement trap door to accomodate theatre productions. Weekly poetry readings, live improvisation theatre, are scheduled, and more events to come. There will be a production of Hamlet on Second Life, launching there in February.
The SL Globe Theatre was constructed to be an accurate rendition of the original (Elizabethan) Globe Theatre that stood in Shakespeare's era. The dimensions were based on numbers from historical sources, but because of SL's distortion of the standard meter in avatar-size portrayal, it actually appears smaller than it is.
It is located on the southwest region of the Cookie sim. Please click to visit it!
