TRANSLATIONS

I'm a professional Italian to English translator, specializing in translating full-length plays, many of which - by some of Italy's leading playwrights - have been published and performed internationally. Scroll below to see a selection. As an actor myself, I've developed a unique ear for translating dialogue for the stage, remaining faithful to the nature, style, message and meaning of the original, while optimizing my translations for the medium. 

I also have experience translating: actor websites, commercial copy, instructional videos, industrial videos, interviews. Get in touch for samples, quotes & references.
