| Title: | Masks and selves in contemporary Java: The dances of Didik Nini Thowok | Authors: | Mrazek, J. | Issue Date: | 2005 | Citation: | Mrazek, J. (2005). Masks and selves in contemporary Java: The dances of Didik Nini Thowok. Journal of Southeast Asian Studies 36 (2) : 249-279. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0022463405000160 | Abstract: | This essay reflects on the plays of masks and selves in the dances and the life of Didik Nini Thowok, and the resonances between dance and life. An Indonesian of Chinese descent and a female impersonator whose comic dances combine different regional styles, Didik upsets notions of ethnic and gender stereotypes and identities, the notion of identity itself. © 2005 The National University of Singapore. | Source Title: | Journal of Southeast Asian Studies | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/21692 | ISSN: | 00224634 | DOI: | 10.1017/S0022463405000160 |
