An ancient Greek tragedy attributed to Aeschylus. The play follows the sufferings of the Titan Prometheus who has been fastened to a rock by Zeus as punishment for giving the knowledge of fire to mankind.

Very little and a whole lot happens in this play

I listened to this via Mission Audio. I read somewhere that it is read from an edition from Harvard, but I haven't been able to confirm that. It's a solid story and the play leaves a lot open to a director's interpretation. I can see this ranging from a very basic setup where we hear Prometheus' story told to us to something elaborate where events are mimed out as they are narrated. Both cool.
