WWE RAW. Triple H, Ric Flair, Chris Jericho, and other stars of the World Wrestling universe return to the TD Banknorth Garden (formerly the FleetCenter) on May 2. Tickets are $20 to $45 and go on sale Saturday at 10 a.m.; call (617) 931-2000. GAGARIN WAY. Súgán Theatre Company takes on this "cruel, funny first play by Scottish playwright Gregory Burke about a human heist gone terribly wrong" April 1 to 23 at the Boston Center for the Arts, 539 Tremont Street in the South End. Tickets are $34 and $38; call (617) 933-8600. "REGARDING EVIL." This international symposium purports to confront "the elusive and immeasurable subject of Evil, its transpolitical behaviors, charismatic æsthetic, and viral dispersement in the vast enterprise of simulation, symbolic power, and catastrophe." Among the totally creepy participants: artist/filmmaker and Björk baby-daddy Matthew Barney; electronic void-noise nihilist Boyd Rice; and left-wing publisher Beau Friedlander, who almost published a book by the Unabomber. That’s April 3 at MIT’s Building 10; for more information, visit web.mit.edu/evil. DR. BROWN’S TRAVELING POETRY SHOW. Local slam champ Michael R. Brown gathers the cream of the local attack-poetry underground for a month-long Tuesday-night residency beginning April 5 at Zeitgeist Gallery, 1353 Cambridge Street in Cambridge. Admission is $7; call (617) 876-6060. MOTHER’S DAY PORTRAIT EXTRAVAGANZA. For the Photographic Resource Center’s annual benefit, big-name photographers donate their time to shoot family portraits for (relatively) short money — $95 a pop may sound like a chunk of change, but not with the museum-quality likes of Lou Jones and David Binder on the other side of the lens. We recommend signing up early, since the spots fill up quick, even though the event, on May 7 and 8, takes place at a half-dozen locations: the PRC, the Park Plaza Hotel, and E.P. Levine in Boston; the Royal Sonesta in Cambridge; Filene’s in Chestnut Hill; and Zeff Photo Supply in Belmont. Call (617) 975-0600.
