Star Trek: The Next Generation<\/em>‘s Gates McFadden<\/strong> will be the headliner for the readings of three new plays at the Getty Villa in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

The three plays are the Vesuvius Prophesies: Deus Ex Machina, Clytemnestra<\/em> and The Rosy Fingers of Dawn<\/em>, written by Tom Jacobson<\/strong> and directed by Michael Michetti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In The Vesuvius Prophesies<\/em>, “One smoldering volcano, two bickering families, three ingenious plays, and a span of nearly two thousand years: … are all elements of Tom Jacobson’s new dramatic trilogy. As the stories unfold, past meets present in a mysterious Roman villa overlooking the ancient city of Pompeii.”<\/p>\n

In Deus Ex Machina<\/em>, “A team of contemporary archaeologists fulfill an ancient Roman prophecy that ends the world.”<\/p>\n

Clytemnesta<\/em> is “Electra<\/em> told from Clytemnestra’s point of view; an irreverent revision.”<\/p>\n

The Rosy Fingers of Dawn<\/em> is the story of “a wealthy Roman family stag[ing] a fake Greek play in Pompeii in A.D. 79.”<\/p>\n

The plays (free of charge although there is a charge for parking) will take place at the Auditorium at the Getty Villa in Los Angeles on Saturday, November 3 and Sunday November 4.
