Shakesperience has gotten the cream of the crop of special guest stars on stage with them for Sweets to the Sweet. It's not only a quotation from Shakespeare; it's the theme for the evening. It's a dessert tasting. It's a live auction. And periodically, the captains of Waterbury's board rooms take on Shakespeare - and each other - to perform classic scenes and support art and education in and beyond our community!
