Seven Angels Theatre places 4 of the top 10 Best Theater Productions of 2012!
Joanne Rochman-Theatre critic for the Waterbury Republican-American recently presented her list of top Theater Productions in Connecticut for 2012. This is what she had to say:

“Centennial Casting,” Seven Angels, Waterbury — A hilarious, laugh-a-minute comedy, this production featured the owner of a metal casting company who finds true love when an actress applies for an audition thinking that the casting company is a theatrical company.

“Vignettes of an I-talian American Girl,” Seven Angels, Waterbury — “Stunning in its accuracy and honesty, this one-woman show captures the experience of a first generation American girl coming of age in an Italian-Catholic family. The traditions of the old world collide with a new American culture and sparks fly.”

“Teddy & Alice,” Seven Angels, Waterbury — “One of those stirring musicals that grabs hold of you until you wish you had a flag in your hand to wave high during the standing ovation, here’s a play about President Theodore Roosevelt who not only had his hands full with world problems, but whose rebellious daughter Alice was more than a handful.”

“The Last Romance,” Seven Angels, Waterbury — “This is a beautifully realistic and charming play about an elderly man and woman who fall in love.” Also featured are arias from great operas.

As we have said before, there is great Equity theatre in Waterbury!!!

This month we would like to highlight Fascia’s Chocolates..In 1964 John & Helen Fascia began making candy in their Waterbury, CT home to supplement John’s livelihood as a toolmaker.

With three young daughters helping out, Fascia’s Chocolates became the family’s full time passion and the business had to move out of the house. Through each of the Waterbury locations the business outgrew, Fascia’s has continued to be a destination and tradition for our loyal customers.

Fascia’s Chocolates continues to be family owned and operated by the originating members and continuing generation of the Fascia Family. We still make all products in-house and in small batches to ensure the highest quality and freshness possible.

A gift from Fascia’s is the perfect way to leave a lasting impression with whomever you share our chocolates.

There is still time to donate to our annual fund raising campaign. Money received helps support our youth and community programs.

Thank you for your generosity!
