Shakespeare is known for writing a play within a play, but what about a play after a play? Immediately following select performances of Marjorie Prime, Capital Stage will spotlight the talents of its apprentices in two apprentice-produced shows. Losing Sight follows an artist who is desperate to finish a painting before he goes blind. Anniversary is a dramatic comedy about a young woman trying to pick up the pieces in a fast-moving world. Check out these bonus shows through May 25. 2215 J Street, www.capstage.org.
