Abstract

This study aims to describe the process of transforming the monologue script Hypocritical by Eji Gusti Prabowo into a theatrical performance using physical theatre techniques. The creative method employed refers to Satya Anirun's directing approach, including scriptwriting, observation, character development, rehearsal processes (reading and blocking), and the finishing stage. The results show that the script Hypocritical raises the theme of social and spiritual hypocrisy, where the main character, the False Saint, consciously misuses religious symbols for personal power due to past trauma. The transformation from script to performance was carried out through character analysis, vocal and spatial exploration, and psychological deepening to display the character's duality. Physical theatre techniques were applied through expressive body movements such as contraction and expansion, as well as reinforced facial expressions to convey the character's intense emotions. Artistic analysis includes costume design symbolizing hypocrisy (a white robe with dark accents), makeup emphasizing emotional transitions, and lighting and sound design building a mystical and unsettling atmosphere. In conclusion, the production of the monologue Hypocritical using physical theatre techniques successfully created a performance that is not only entertaining but also reflective, critiquing the abuse of religious authority and presenting a social mirror of the dangers of hypocrisy in society.
