The Capri Theatre is getting into the spirit of giving. We've partnered with the Mid-Alabama Coalition for the Homeless (MACH) to host the Capri's first-ever Sockball fight - I.e., a snowball fight, but with socks.

To participate, the rules are simple: Bring clean, unused socks to It's a Wonderful Life on December 9 at 7:30. After the pre-show talk is finished and a year-long Capri membership is raffled off, participants will ball up the socks and try to protect their drinks as best they can. We'll do a countdown, and then everybody goes to town. It might be the closest thing to a snowball fight we get all year! After a couple minutes (this is our first sockball fight, so we'll play it by ear), volunteers will come by to collect the sockballs. All socks will be donated to MACH.

Everyone who brings socks gets a limited-edition Capri cup. You can refill it with soda all night long, but only for this show. Cups are available while supplies last- so one cup per person, please. Don't get all Pottersville on us.

Want to donate more than socks? Feel free. MACH is currently hosting its annual Blanket Drive, collecting blankets, coats, and other warm items, and they'll see to it that anything else you donate goes where it can do the most good.
