STEEL MAGNOLIAS at CCT
Six Shows over Two Weekends: April 17 – 26, 2026
Caribbean Community Theatre continues its 41st season with STEEL MAGNOLIAS – a tragicomedy by Robert Harling.
There are six performances over two weekends of this play at CCT: Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m., April 17-18 and 24-25, 2026, and two matinee shows at 4 p.m. on Sunday, April 19 and 26.
This play is set in Truvy’s beauty salon in Louisiana, where all the ladies who are anybody come to have their hair done. Helped by her new assistant, Annelle, Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon, an eccentric millionaire, the local social leader, and Shelby, who is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Based on a true story of the playwright’s family, this beautifully written play is filled with hilarious repartee and acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions.
“…a skillfully crafted, lovingly evoked picture of eccentricity in the small-town South…” –Drama-Logue
“Harling has given his women sharp, funny dialogue…The play builds to a conclusion that is deeply moving.”
– New York Daily News
Christine Thomas directs the cast of Steel Magnolias: Malerie Gleason, Azadi Knight, Beth Moss Mahar, Heather McRae, Kathleen Minnis and Lynn Senter.

Afro-Caribbean Steel & Brass Orchestra
Directed by Dion Parson
The Afro-Caribbean Steel & Brass Orchestra is a groundbreaking large ensemble project and marks the premiere of a bold new musical vision rooted in the performance traditions of the African diaspora.
Conceived and directed by internationally acclaimed musician, educator, and cultural ambassador Dion Parson, the orchestra brings together a dynamic 14-piece ensemble that bridges the sonic worlds of steel pan, jazz brass, and African-Caribbean rhythm.
Featuring three steel pan voices, three master hand drummers, brass and woodwinds, and a full rhythm section, the ensemble reimagines what an orchestra can be merging the structural depth of a jazz big band with the harmonic richness of Caribbean traditions and the pulse of Afro-Latin and African rhythms.
This is not a traditional symphonic model.
It is a living, breathing ensemble designed for storytelling through sound.
Through original compositions, improvisation, and culturally rooted arrangements, the AfroCaribbean Steel & Brass Orchestra creates an immersive experience that moves fluidly across genres, geographies, and generations. Each performance is both a concert and a conversation—connecting audiences to the shared histories and evolving expressions of the diaspora.
As a premiere project, the orchestra represents a significant artistic milestone, offering a fresh and necessary voice within today’s global music landscape—one that is as intellectually grounded as it is rhythmically alive.

Due to unpredictable weather conditions, operational changes can occur. Weather will be monitored closely throughout the day.
The Virgin Islands Department of Education advises the public that following the 6 a.m. weather update from the National Weather Service, all public schools will open on their regular schedule today, Monday, April 13.
The Department has closely monitored weather conditions impacting the Territory and, based on the latest updates and recommendations, it has been determined that public schools can open for normal operations. Weather patterns and shifts can occur throughout the day. VIDE will remain vigilant in the event that operational changes are needed. At this time, the decision has been made to have public schools open on Monday, April 13.
Important Reminder:
A federally funded mitigation program designed to strengthen the Virgin Islands’ economy and infrastructure is beginning to take shape, with nearly $25 million now tied to projects aimed at helping businesses withstand future disasters.
Funded through Community Development Block Grant – Mitigation dollars allocated by Congress following the 2017 hurricanes, the initiative focuses on reducing risk before the next crisis hits — while keeping businesses operational and communities supported in the meantime.
“This is about prevention,” said Donnie E. Dorsett, who oversees the economic resilience and revitalization component of the program. “How do we keep businesses open, people employed, and services running — even when we’re hit again?”
So far, 26 projects have been selected, representing approximately $24.9 million in funding across a cross-section of the territory’s economy — from small businesses and nonprofits to hotels, farms, and critical infrastructure.
The largest allocations include $6 million for the VI Economic Development Authority and $3.5 million for Our Town Frederiksted, $2.2 million for Royale Systems, LLC to reinforce their telecommunications facility, along with other major investments in hospitality and tourism, such as Concordia Resort Hotel ($1.7 million), King Christian Hotel ($1.6 million), and Hotel 1829 ($1.1 million).
Other awards reflect a broad effort to reach smaller operators and essential services: funding for farms, laundromats, medical providers, restaurants, marinas, auto services, and rescue organizations — each tied to the same core goal of resilience.
Under the program’s two main components — Commercial Hardening and Financing and Small Business Mitigation — projects range from installing storm-rated windows and doors to upgrading communications systems and adding emergency power through generators or solar-plus-battery systems.
Dorsett said those investments are designed to limit disruptions that ripple across the economy during storms or outages.
“If you have power, you’re not just surviving — you’re serving more people,” he said. “You’re keeping staff employed, and you’re supporting the community when it needs it most.”
That approach extends beyond individual businesses. Telecommunications upgrades aim to keep emergency systems online, while maritime improvements — such as reinforcing docks and expanding berths — could help ensure goods and supplies continue moving even if primary ports are impacted.
“We have to expect the unexpected,” Dorsett said. “If larger ports are compromised, smaller private facilities could become critical lifelines.”
The program also ties funding to broader economic impact. A small hotel expansion supported through mitigation dollars, for example, is expected to create new jobs, while improvements to marine infrastructure could increase capacity for charter vessels – bringing additional spending into the territory.
On the small business side, funding is also addressing long-standing operational challenges, from improving security for farmers to enabling mobile payment systems for vendors.
In some cases, applicants have committed to serving the public during emergencies – offering their facilities as distribution sites or temporary shelters.
“We’re looking at the bigger picture,” Dorsett said. “What does this project give back to the community?”
The process to reach this point has taken time. Applications opened in early 2024 and drew roughly 78 submissions, each requiring review, clarification, and technical assistance. Projects are now moving forward in phases, with three already underway and more expected as they complete environmental review.
Dorsett acknowledged that timeline — stretching from application to implementation — has drawn scrutiny, but said the scale of the program and federal requirements demand a deliberate approach.
“Everyone wants to see progress — and rightly so,” he said. “But we also have to ensure every project meets federal requirements and is evaluated fairly.”
In total, the territory has access to roughly $40 million in mitigation funding for this program over a 12-year period, with current efforts focused on getting the initial slate of projects up and running.
If approvals continue on pace, additional projects could begin construction by mid-to-late 2026.
For Dorsett, the goal is not just recovery — but readiness.
“When the next event comes — and it will — we want to be ready,” he said.
The National Weather Service in San Juan, Puerto Rico, has issued a Flood Watch for the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. Forecasters warn of periods of heavy rainfall, with the greatest impacts expected Monday night into Tuesday.
Flood Watch and Rainfall Threat
The NWS has reported that the Flood Watch will be in effect from 10 a.m. Monday through 8 a.m. Wednesday as inclement weather affects the islands. Meteorologists said that the unsettled conditions are likely to generate thunderstorms with lightning.
“A wetter and more unstable pattern will develop across Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands beginning late Monday into Tuesday as a mid- to upper-level trough of low-pressure approaches,” according to the NWS. “This will support more widespread showers and thunderstorms, with the greatest impacts expected Monday afternoon into early Wednesday morning,” the NWS said.
The NWS warned that prolonged periods of potentially heavy precipitation could lead to dangerous conditions, including flooding and landslides.
“Impacts from this weather event may include urban and small stream flooding, isolated flash flooding, rapid river rises, and landslides, and saturated soils will enhance runoff,” the NWS stated. “Rainfall of one to three inches per day, with locally higher amounts, is expected. The highest risk is Monday afternoon through Tuesday, though the exact placement of impacts remains uncertain,” the NWS added.
Even after the current Flood Watch expires Wednesday morning, unsettled conditions may continue through the latter part of the week. The NWS said abundant moisture and the lingering influence of the trough could keep a limited to elevated flooding threat in place through at least next Saturday, with moderate to locally heavy showers and isolated thunderstorms still possible across Puerto Rico and the USVI.
“Residents and visitors are urged to remain alert to changing weather conditions and to avoid flooded roadways,” the NWS advised.
Marine Conditions
Hazardous marine and coastal conditions are also expected to persist. The NWS said pulses of a northerly swell will continue to arrive, and increasing showers, gusty winds, and thunderstorms from Monday through Wednesday could also create locally hazardous marine conditions.
“Small Craft Advisory conditions are expected across the Atlantic waters as seas build up to seven feet through midweek,” the NWS reported.
Additionally, the risk of rip currents will remain elevated, with further deteriorating seas expected later in the week.
“A moderate risk of rip currents is expected to develop across northern exposed beaches by Tuesday, with conditions becoming more hazardous again by the end of the workweek,” the NWS said. “Beachgoers and inexperienced surfers should avoid entering the water, especially near jetties, as life-threatening rip currents remain possible. Heed the advice of lifeguards, beach patrol flags, and posted signs. Access to hazardous beaches may be limited, and individuals should follow all posted warnings and safety guidance.”
Local Weather Updates
Information regarding the weather across the USVI, including marine forecasts, is available from the NWS and NOAA. Additionally, the local forecast is regularly updated on the Source Weather Page, where a weekly video forecast is available.
Finally, weather hazards can occur year-round, and it is crucial to be prepared. Residents and visitors can view weather alerts and disaster preparedness information from the Virgin Islands Territorial Emergency Management Agency.
The Charlotte Amalie High School Class of 1983 is giving back in a hands-on way, recently hosting a Health & Wellness Awareness Screening designed to support student well-being and promote healthier choices.
Organized through the group’s Outreach Committee, the event at the end of last month brought resources and information directly to campus, creating space for students to engage with topics that have real impact beyond the classroom. The initiative placed a particular focus on prevention and awareness, including issues like diabetes, with the goal of helping students better understand how everyday decisions can shape their long-term health.
“We’re aiming to give back to our alma mater and support our students’ well-being,” Felecia R. Maduro, Outreach Committee chair, said in a recent release. “Our goal is to ensure that young people have access to information that will help them lead healthier lives.”
For organizers, the effort is part of a broader commitment by the Class of ’83 to remain actively engaged with the school community — not just through reunion milestones, but through initiatives that offer practical support and relevant information. By bringing these conversations directly to students, the group is helping to reinforce the importance of awareness, prevention, and informed decision-making at an early age.
The screening also reflects a growing recognition that schools play an important role in connecting students with resources that support both academic and personal well-being. For the Class of 1983, it’s a way to stay connected while contributing to something that has a lasting impact, Maduro said.
