Pushing past the boundaries of theater, documentary and activism, 'Capers is a one-woman show based on the stories of families at the Arthur Capper/Carrollsburg public housing projects -- also known as 'Capers -- in Southeast DC who protested the government-funded relocation and demolition of their neighborhood. After two years in the making, 'Capers weaves together nearly a dozen characters in this moving portrait of families struggling to fight for their community and their human right to a place to live.When: Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., Sundays at 3:30 p.m., from Jan. 12 to Feb. 5
