Abstract

Penulisan artikel ini bertujuan mengkaji kostum dalam teater tradisional boria di Pulau Pinang. Kostum merupakan salah satu daripada lima elemen yang terdapat dalam persembahan boria. Komponen boria terdiri daripada pelakon sketsa, sailor tukang karang, dan pemuzik yang menggunakan elemen kostum. Perubahan zaman menyebabkan boria telah menempuhi tempoh cabaran yang menguji kekukuhannya terutama kostumnya. Selain itu, pengubahsuaian kostum boria telah berlaku mengikut keinginan berdasarkan budaya komuniti tempatan. Terdapat dua objektif kajian, iaitu untuk mengenal pasti kefahaman dan fungsi elemen kostum dalam setiap komponen boria. Seterusnya, mengemukakan pembahagian kostum boria setiap komponennya pada awal abad ke-21 dalam persembahan boria moden. Pendekatan kualitatif telah diguna pakai dalam kajian ini yang melibatkan kaedah temu bual dan pemerhatian. Hasil dapatan pengkaji mendapati perubahan telah terwujud dalam kostum boria kini adalah kostum tukang karang dan kostum sailor kerana masyarakat lebih mudah tertarik berbanding dengan kostum pelakon-pelakon. Bukan itu sahaja, peranan pemuzik yang telah disingkirkan menyebabkan kostumnya tidak lagi dihasilkan. Oleh itu, pemeliharaan dan pemuliharaan kostum boria adalah satu langkah yang harus dilakukan oleh pelbagai pihak agar tidak disalahgunakan untuk tujuan komersial semata-mata.

 

This article will study at the early 21st century Penang traditional boria theatre costumes. The costume is one of the five elements found in boria performance. The component of boria especially sketch actors, tukang karang, sailors, and musicians will use this element. Time development had caused boria to undergo a series of evolution, especially the costumes. In addition, the boria costume had been customised according to the local community's taste and culture. This study aims to identify the apprehension and function of the costume elements in each component of the boria. Next, this study also would like to illustrate the division of boria costumes for each of its components in the early 21st century within the modern boria performances. This study has used a qualitative method involving interviews and observations. The objectives of this study have been answered successfully based on the data collected and the analysis. Significant changes in the current boria costumes involving the tukang karang and the sailor's costume had also been found through this study. The findings had found that audiences were more easily attracted to them than the actors' costumes. Not only that, but this study also found that the removal of the musicians' role had caused their costumes to cease production. Therefore, the preservation and conservation of boria costumes is a step that should be done by various parties so as not to be misused for purely commercial purposes
