Now playing
PSY
A return engagement by members of the Montreal-based circus troupe Les 7 Doigts de la Main. When it came to Boston in January, this show was a transfixing spectacle that boggled mind and eye. Through July 24. ArtsEmerson, Cutler Majestic Theatre. 617-824-8400, www.artsemerson.org
THREE HOTELS
There’s probably a bigger, better play locked within the monologue structure of Jon Robin Baitz’s drama about a married couple reckoning with the cost of moral compromises, but the searching performances by Steven Weber and Maura Tierney take us deep into the couple’s troubled souls. Through July 24. Williamstown Theatre Festival, Williamstown. 413-597-3400, www.wtfestival.org
THE MEMORY OF WATER
Three sisters (well played by Corinna May, Kristin Wold, and Elizabeth Aspenlieder) sift through their own lives, the intricacies of their relationship to one another, and the enduring puzzle of their newly deceased mother. Through Sept. 4. Shakespeare & Company, Lenox. 413-637-3353, www.shakespeare.org
DON AUCOIN
THE VENETIAN TWINS
The whole family will enjoy Goldoni’s playful 1747 commedia, treated to a sprightly, semi-contemporized makeover. Through Aug. 27. Shakespeare & Company, Lenox. 413-637-3353, www.shakespeare.org
