The Hollywood Ballroom and Theater is a premier SL venue
for romance and unique special performance. For instance, this Saturday September 19th at 7pm SLT, The
Hollywood Ballroom is featuring the sultry and sensuous Pink Vampire, who has one of the best voices and stage performances
in all SL. This is followed on Sunday night September 20th at 7pm SLT with the “Adele Live!” tribute
show. It will be all Adele, all the time for your listening and dancing
pleasure.
The Hollywood Ballroom started as a private venue for
creator Origen Resident and his friends. He wanted a special, remarkably
beautiful build for private parties and a place to get away from the heavy lag
of other major venues. After a couple of parties and at the urging of his
friends, Origen (who previously co-owned another venue in SL) decided to open
the ballroom to the public.
Origen says regarding this decision, “Yes, my friends twisted my arm, but they didn’t have to twist it
hard. I really want to share the beauty of the Hollywood Ballroom with others.
I am determined to make this something different than any other dance club in
SL. I am not opening this venue to make money, as so many others do. I am
opening it for my own enjoyment, for that of my friends and the new friends I
will be making with those people who come to the club to enjoy the music, the
dancing, the entertainment and the atmosphere at The Hollywood Ballroom.”
The music at the Hollywood Ballroom falls to the romantic
side. The Ballroom is open 24/7 playing Martini in the Morning, when performers
are not taking the stage. At the time of this writing, The Hollywood Ballroom
has special events Thursday through Sunday.
Thursday night is always “Hot Latin Nights.” DJ Mandala
spins everything from slow romantic Latin music to hot Carnivale style sambas.
Friday nights belong to “Love – Hollywood style.” Love is
in the air and the songs range from romantic classics to modern hits. DJ Archer
spins the tunes and takes your requests and dedications.
Saturday is “Saturday Night, Live!” The best live singing
entertainment will appear every Saturday on the Stage of the Hollywood
Ballroom. On Saturday, September 19th,
The Hollywood Ballroom presents the amazing Pink Vampire. See her once and you will agree that her voice and
performances are unlike anything else in Second Life.
Sunday nights are tribute nights. Each week a prominent
singing star is highlighted. On Sunday, September 20th, Adele will
be the featured artist. It will be all Adele, all the time.
All event begin at 7pm, SLT. Attire is always formal or
cocktail.
As a real life ballroom and swing dancer, Origen comments, “Looking good on the dance floor and
having options for each style of dance is important. It keeps people from
getting bored. Since we don’t have the ability to perform each step as we do in
RL, a good variety of dance animations is important to keep this fun. Why so
many of the larger clubs have such a limited number of dances (and some very
bad ones), is beyond me. At The Hollywood Ballroom we have 88 high quality dances,
and we offer both Intan and TIS Hybrid systems for our guests. As new and
better high quality, mocap dancing animations come out, they will either be
added to the current set of dances or replace older animations.”
When asked to sum up The Hollywood Ballroom, Origen
stated, “The Hollywood Ballroom and Theater
is a stunning venue to bring and impress your date any time of day or night.
The atmosphere of the ballroom, the romantic music, the dances, and the low lag
all contribute to bringing about special moments. Moments that our guests will
remember fondly over the years.”
