Contemporary Russian-language dramatic texts are both textual and intertextual. In recent years, virtual space has increasingly become the subject of works. The texts begin to resemble Internet creativity, describing not so much real interpersonal relationships as the activity of social networks users. Dramatic texts cease to be a representation of the real, extra-linguistic world, as well as an image of the culture associated with this world, but increasingly create a simulation of reality in virtual space. These processes are described based on the example of plays by young Russian-speaking authors: Valery Pieczejkin, tester 1998, Alexander Seredin, and Alexei Bytiucki. The works in question were presented to a wide audience during subsequent editions of the Festival of Young Drama “Lubimowka”.
