Summary/Abstract: A panel discussion organized on 11 March 2014 by the Kazimierz Dejmek Nowy Theater in Łódź and Didaskalia to address the essential, and often overlooked subject of the translator in creating the theatrical work. The discussion was held with people professionally involved in translating dramatic works from various European languages. The interlocutors focused on the issue of the specifics of drama translation, the translation process, and on translation techniques themselves. Questions were also raised concerning the collaboration between a translator and the theater. A particular case of direct cooperation between a translator and director while creating a particular play was also discussed.
