Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses three aspects of the drama in virtual space: Internet library (text), virtual archives (photos and performance materials), and performance in the Internet space. The first two modes of existence were considered valuable source of information, enabling study of little popular texts (especially Russian and German ones from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century). The third mode, discussed with reference to the play of Evgenij Grishkovec („Out of paper”), raises theoretical dilemmas. The show is here primary in relation to the text. In this case, no analysis is possible without knowing the performance, which also exists in the Internet space. It is therefore part of the digital world.
