Abstract
The paper deals with the problem of translating a classical epic text into the language of drama. Based on the material of the plays of Asya Voloshina, it is proved that the modern playwright enters into a dialogue with his predecessor in order to see the classics in the context of the "big time". In the play "Gogol's Overcoat", the text of the original source is presented as part of the St. Petersburg text. The latter discovers new meanings of Gogol's story.
