St. Thomas, V.I.: The Reichhold Center for the Arts has come a long way from the pledge by the late industrialistHenry Reichhold to provide the people of the Virgin Islands with a top-flight arts facility. Since 1978, international and local stars have graced the Reichhold's stage; the addition of the Summer Repertory Theatre, youth theatre workshops, a Digital Media Institute, and Community Outreach projects continue under the steady hand of Executive Director David Edgecombe.
This year's season opened with Grammy winner Al Jarreau. Tito Nieves, Joe Sample, The O'Jays, Glen Washington and The Parsons Dance Company round out the international offerings. On the local side, a tribute to the newly dubbed Official Music of the U.S. Virgin Islands, Quelbe, is on the schedule: "Playing Ring: A Musical Journey into Quelbe".
It is possible to make a secure online ticket purchase or print the form to fill out and mail, fax or carry in if you would prefer. Of course, it is also possible to purchase season tickets at the Reichhold Center Box office or by calling 340.693.1555.
