Abstract
Costumes in theater performances are very important in building the characters in the script. According to Teater Koma, the costumes in the Sie Jin Kwie theater performance are the best and most magnificent costumes of all Teater Koma productions. The Sie Jin Kwie play is set in Chinese history during the Tang Dynasty. This study examines the costumes of the Sie Jin Kwie Fights the Western Ghost theater produced by Teater Koma with an acculturation approach through qualitative methods. In the process of making theater costumes, costume makers need to understand the script to be able to build the expected characters. Sie Jin Kwie has a Chinese cultural background, but in making the costumes there are elements of other cultures in the concept of making them, so that acculturation occurs in the performance. Acculturation theory is used to examine the concept of cultural fusion in the costumes of the Sie Jin Kwie Melawan Siluman Barat performance produced by Teater Koma. The theory used is the acculturation theory presented by Koentjaraningrat. The elements of acculturation in the costumes of the Sie Jin Kwie performance, one of which is found in the use of Pekalongan, Cirebon and Lasem batik. Based on the results of this study, other cultural elements in the costumes of this performance do not eliminate the character, cultural identity and history that are the background of the story in the script Sie Jin Kwie Fights the Western Ghost.
