Abstract

This article aimed to discuss the model of women’s randai development which promotes the community of Minangkabau folk theatre. This research used product-based method. The efforts on randai’s theoretical comprehension and technical development are currently brightened up, both by the Minangkabau artists or cultural experts, or even non- Minangkabau artists. Creativity is a must if randai wants to be preserved within the always-developing Minangkabau society. Nowadays, the performance of randai in Minangkabau is only suitable for men and considered not appropriate for women. As the consequence, Minangkabau artists and cultural experts do not justify the women to be involved as randai performer, especially as the galombang player. Addressing to this issue, the development of women’s randai was seen to be important by exploring all artistic aspects of randai that are suitable for Minangkabau women. This randai development used the concept of art as the valuable experience that came from creative imagination. This new model is expected to be suitable and appropriate with the nature and characteristics of Minangkabau women.
