Irish playwright Enda Walsh’s “The New Electric Ballroom” tells a dark but funny tale of three sisters in a remote fishing village, where they pass the time with rituals and reminiscences concerning a crucial night decades ago. Fantasy, poetry and hard truths swirl together in this haunting piece. Manbites Dog Theater, Durham. 8:15 p.m. Friday and Saturday (through March 9). $12-$17. 919-682-3343; manbitesdogtheater.org.
