Kesenian Asli Jawa Timur "Ludruk"

East Java Original Art "Ludruk"

If you mention the name of the city of Surabaya, our imagination can not be separated from the typical arts of this area,

The Art of Ludruk.

Ludruk art is similar to Dramatic Arts played by several people on stage

And watched by loyal viewers. Usually raises the theme of the story of the struggle of the past.

As for the difference with Drama Arts is located on the Improvisation of the players.The storyline is clear but always colored with  jokes that make the audience laugh

Flinch.

Ludruk's performance is always preceded by the opening where a dancer is accompanied The gamelan music of his name is Ngremo (Remo), his players are dressed as typical as the picture 

groups of Ludruk are scattered in almost every area in East Java, but that is still I remember Ludruk Kartolo. Unfortunately this Ludruk show uses dialect dialect Suroboyoan (native language surabaya) so difficult to be understood by non Surabaya people.

Unfortunately Ludruk Arts is more in demand by non-intellectual people such as security guards, pedicab drivers, and society down
