prometheus bound

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'play in greek concert' is the definition.
'prometheus bound' can be an answer for 'play' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the 'in greek concert' bit.

'cut number headed for america' is the wordplay.
'cut number' becomes 'prome' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'headed' becomes 'bound' (I've seen this in another clue).
'for' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'america' becomes 'theus' (I've seen this in another clue).
'bound' put after 'theus' is 'theusbound'.
'prome'+'theusbound'='PROMETHEUS BOUND'

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
