COVER IMAGE CalArts’ Center for New Performance partnered with the J. Paul Getty Museum and Trans Arts to present a new translation and production of Aeschylus’ Prometheus Bound—one of the few surviving plays from the earliest period of staged drama in the West. Performed for three weekends in September at the Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades, the production’s set featured a five-ton, 23-foot-high steel wheel. Ron Cephas Jones (top left) played Prometheus, while faculty member Mirjana Jokovic (center) appeared as Io. The cast also featured a 12-woman Chorus (bottom right)—all CalArts students and alumnae.
