Abstract

The focus of this research is to look for factors that influence the existence of Kembang Sembah Dance and the right solution to popularize it in the world of performing arts, especially on the island of Lombok and in Indonesia in general. In addition to uncovering factors that affect the existence of Kembang Sembah dance, the purpose of this study is to compile a dance script for the dance of the flower dance. The preparation of dance script is considered important considering the need for written documentation, in addition to capturing the work of written documents can be used in the process of education of Kembang Sembah dance to the next generation. This research uses historical methods. Historical writing not only reveals events chronologically, but the need for a sharp study and analysis supported by relevant theories. Historical research has five stages, namely: (1) selection of topics, (2) collection of sources, (3) verification (historical criticism and validity of sources), (4) interpretation: analysis and synthesis, (5) hysterography. This research was successful in discovering that Kembang Sembah Dance was particularly owned by the community of Lombok, which was Sasak ethnic, the development was affected by the role from several parts of the society especially some dance artists in Lombok. Another thing found in this research was that the creator of Kembang Sembah Dance was not the original Sasak artist but I Ketut Astika from Singaraja Bali, who has passed away, but in the creation proses Kembang Sembah Dance kept following the basic movements of the existing Sasak dance. The other factors causing the threat of Kembang Sembah Dance were the monotonous dance movements and the movements could only be interpreted by Sasak’s community as the owner of Kembang Sembah Dance.
