UVI students and employees have a tremendous opportunity to attend world class entertainment at the Reichhold Center for the Arts. Ten percent employee discount are available, while special, $25 tickets are offered to UVI students. The season kicks off on Saturday, Oct. 18, with performances by two of the Caribbean’s hottest artists, Jamaican singing sensation Tessanne Chin and the Virgin Islands’ own Pressure “Buss” Pipe. Chin took America and the world by storm when she won NBC’s mega-hit singing competition “The Voice.” She gained a wide fan base with her 2006 hit “Secret Hideaway,” and has since appeared at the White House Woman of Soul concert, alongside heavyweights Patti LaBelle, Aretha Franklin and Melissa Etheridge. Pressure’s hit single “Love and Affection” catapulted him onto the world stage. His recent hit “Virgin Islands Nice” has made him reggae ambassador of the VI.
