Abstract

Traditional theatre is divided into three regions namely North Lamongan and West Lamongan. This division has a distribution of types of traditional theater performances that live and develop into parts of the Lamongan community. North Lamongan is a heritage of Sunan Drajat which has survived to this day, and the Kyai Song-Song Krucil Puppet as a traditional theater inherited from Sunan Drajat is currently the 13th generation of Sunan Drajat, and South Lamongan consists of the almost extinct art of Sandur, because this performance is not performed again even though the performer and the device for this performance are still maintained. However, there is no preservation of the show. Furthermore, the Gemblak Dor show, which is a traditional theater performance originating from Ngimbang Lamongan, is growing very rapidly because almost all of the Ngimbang area of art is performed and even groups of Gemblak Dor, and Wayang Tengul art have emerged in Ngimbang, Slaharwotan region. In this study the author analyzes the development of traditional theater arts in regional divisions, traditional theater actors, traditional theater performances, the role of traditional theater performances and generations of traditional theater performers. This results in a fundamental perspective related to the spectrum of the development of traditional theater, so that it can be seen the future of the traditional theater of Lamongan in the present and the future. The effort to preserve is an authentic effort so that traditional art is maintained.

Keywords: traditional theater, Lamongan, future.
