Christmas on the Musical Theater Stage
Saturday, December 21st sees the repeat of a seasonal episode of our original series, “The Magic Of The Musical” with your host Caledonia Skytower, at 2pm Pacific Time/SLT.
This month the theme is “Christmas on the Musical Theater Stage” and Caledonia’s special guest is Chris Serface, Managing Artistic Director of Tacoma Little Theatre and Past President of the American Association of Community Theatre.
Featured music for the day consists of a touch of nostalgia with an interleaving of seasonal tunes, and the latest edition of our Second Life exploration show goes out at noon and 4pm SLT.
Where Have You Been? S04E13: Gingerbread and the Woodies
We’re pleased to present the latest episode in our original series, “Where Have You Been?”, where we discuss things to do and places to visit across the Second Life Grid.
Episodes are broadcast on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 12 noon and 4pm SLT/Pacific Time.
In this episode we investigate a new installation at alpha tribe Island: “Gingerbread and the Woodies”.
Gingerbread and the Woodies on alpha tribe Island has been created by Alpha Auer and is exactly what it might sound like — a display of the season in wood and gingerbread. But what you’ll discover on alpha tribe Island is really much more. It’s full of delight, whimsy, and some mad-cool original mesh.
