I bet you had never considered ballet in cyber space. It may sound kind of crazy. Well, it is happening and has been for a few years now. Groups of people, dancers, choreographers, musicians, and more are attending practices, building sets, and working hard to put on performances in Second Life. They are spending long hours to put these performances together. Many are performers outside the virtual world as well. Each dancer is a performer with their own avatar sitting at their keyboard, attending rehearsals, working with a producer and choreographer to get all the pieces in place. The audience logs in and sits in the theater to view the live performance.
