Linked Data Theatre, an open software library for publication and visualization of data on the web

The Linked Data Theatre (LDT) is an open source software library. It contains building blocks for publication and visualization of Linked Data. The intention is to give data a stage on the web. We see the LDT as a kind of common facility, a toolkit that app builders an organisations can use to share data including the meaning and provenance information of the data and suitable visualizations. So the LDT is also a Linked Data Toolkit.
