The article examines the translation of some plays by Ivan Vyrypaev (Irkutsk, 1974) and is divided into three parts: the first investigates the peculiarities of the dramatic text and of its translation in terms of stageability, speakability and performability. The second part focuses on the geographical and historical context of Vyrypaev’s work, highlighting the specific features of his poetics and language. The third part is a reflection stimulated by the encounter with the Russian playwright and focuses on the approach to the texts in the translation process. Vyrypaev argues that «the theatrical text is literature that you do not read but watch». Through some examples we will show how such an assumption has often guided the choices made, in order to provide a translation of Vyrypaev’s plays for the theatre.

Abstract
The article examines the translation of some plays by Ivan Vyrypaev (Irkutsk, 1974) and is divided into three parts: the first investigates the peculiarities of the dramatic text and of its translation in terms of stageability, speakability and performability. The second part focuses on the geographical and historical context of Vyrypaev’s work, highlighting the specific features of his poetics and language. The third part is a reflection stimulated by the encounter with the Russian playwright and focuses on the approach to the texts in the translation process. Vyrypaev argues that «the theatrical text is literature that you do not read but watch». Through some examples we will show how such an assumption has often guided the choices made, in order to provide a translation of Vyrypaev’s plays for the theatre.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
