The problem is discussed using the example of Caryl Churchill’s Cloud Nine – a play based on changeability and performability of gender identities. In her play, Churchill uses cross-casting to inscribe the gender of potential actors on the text, which needs to be considered by the translator of the play. In the article, Sophia Totzeva’s concept of theatrical potential is used to identify potential shifts conditioned by the play’s stageability.
