Basilique
Town is a small Italian city recreated within Second Life! The town was created and decorated in January 2013 by Canary
Beck and Harvey Crabsticks. The
place is nicely decorated and you really have the feeling that you
are in the real life Italian city Basilique. It’s
really amazing how they actually recreated the whole town.
I found the music a nice touch. In the chapel and Bathouse, 1930s tunes are played. House music is played at the modern bar. There are both parties in the Baththouse for
members, and DJs performing for crowds at the Modern. There are also chat salons where a dozen members
discuss a planned topic for over 2 hours.
Then there is the Basilique Performing Arts Company. Their performances are over for the year, though there are future productions coming in 2015. But up to September 21, they were doing performances of a Second Life version of "Paradise Lost," and "Romeo and Juliet 2.0"
This sweeping story features 43 characters, took over 1000 hours of
development and a budget of more than L$250,000 to produce. You will
come away saying that this is one of the most amazing things you have
seen in Second Life. Don’t miss this unbelievable opportunity. Book
now. Tickets are available on the Second Life Marketplace.
Second Life’s most ambitious performing arts company presents an
adaptation of John Milton’s Paradise Lost. Following their “masterful
adaptation” of William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, The Basilique
Performing Arts Company returns to tell the story of humankind’s
original sin. Choreographed and set to the fourteen movements of
Mozart’s Requiem, this is the story of humankind’s creation by God,
temptation by Satan, and expulsion from Paradise.

In
my personal opinion, it’s a nice town that has been recreated
within the Second Life environment. This
is a very nice place that you can visit if you want to relax a bit
and just have a look around.
