“The Trial of Pericles”: This annual event by the National Hellenic Museum has a clever premise: Take a trial or debate from ancient Greece and argue it anew, with present-day legal all-stars populating the courtroom. Back in 451 B.C.E., Pericles changed the Athenian Constitution to restrict citizenship and voting rights, though he died before his actions ever reached a courtroom. At the Harris Theater, Katerina Alexopoulos from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security will play a prosecuting attorney and retired Judge Paul Lillios will take on the thankless task of playing Pericles. The audience gets to vote on the verdict. 7 p.m. April 17 at the Harris Theater, 205 E. Randolph St. at Millennium Park; tickets $52.50-$102.50 at www.harristheaterchicago.org
