MASIHKAH ADA CINTA D(AR)I KAMPUS BIRU? PLAY PERFORMANCE: AN ADAPTATION OF NOVEL-FILM AS A MANIFESTO STRATEGY
Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper discusses a descriptive qualitative study of a play performance entitled masihkah ada cinta d(ar)i Kampus Biru? produced by Teater Gadjah Mada (TGM) in 2016. The focus of this paper is to present how the play performance is used as a manifesto strategy by the creators. The play performance was the result of an adaptation from two existing artworks with the same title: Ashadi Siregar’s Cintaku di Kampus Biru novel and Ami Prijono’s Cintaku di Kampus Biru film. The approach used in the study is formulation of several theories in a frame of adaptation; they are media transformation theory; theories which are closely related to adaptation: reception theory and intertextuality theory; and narration theories of the three media: play performance; novel; and film. The differences and changes of the adaptation process are interpreted as representation strategy, which are finally applied as manifesto strategy by the play performance creators. The play performance strategy was represented through three main elements of the story: the plot; the characterization; and the place setting. Based on the study, the findings showed that the play performance creators stated the manifesto strategy through: (1) the intertextual relation between the three media and the audience repertoire; (2) the creative interpretation of the characterization and the characters; and (3) the gallery room as a symbol of "transaction space". Another important finding was that the representation strategy of the play performance was also used as a manifesto strategy to respond to the polemic occurred before the performance.
