The paper is divided into a theoretical section discussing theatre translation, culture-specific items (CSI) and character speech, followed by an analytical section comparing selected passages from the source text and translation. The analysis demonstrates that the translation generally prioritises performability and local resonance over the direct preservation of Irish linguistic and cultural specificity, while retaining elements of rural marginality and social markedness.
