Abstract

Since 1990, stand-up comedy has gained attention from various groups. This is shown by the emergence of comics from many diverse ethnic groups. One comic who attracts attention is Sakdiyah Ma’ruf. Hailing from Arab descent, Sakdiyah often represents Arab-Indonesian women and their problems, especially in Pekalongan. Employing Fairclough discourse analysis, this article investigates humour in Sakdiyah stand-up comedy performance uploaded in Youtube, including "Sakdiyah Ma’ruf: Buka Tawa," "Sakdiyah Ma’ruf - 2015 Havel Prize Acceptance Speech"; "Sakdiyah Ma'ruf | Indonesian Stand-Up Comedian"; "Sakdiyah Curhat Jadi Perempuan Arab"; "The Bravest Coward | Sakdiyah Ma’ruf | Tedxubud,"; "Sa'diyah Ma’ruf Komika Santri" and "Stand Up Comedy Sakdiyah Ma’ruf Perdana di Tahun 2020." Based on the analysis, seven stand-up comedy performances represent women who are marginalised, women who marry young, women who are considered religious experts, women who are considered objects, and a bad image of women who become comics.

Sejak 1990-an, stand up comedy mendapat perhatian dari pelbagai kalangan terutama anak muda di Indonesia. Perkembangan ini ditunjukkan dengan kemunculan komika dari pelbagai etnis. Salah seorang komika yang menarik perhatian publik adalah Sakdiyah Makruf. Komika etnis Arab asal Pekalongan ini kerap mengangkat isu perempuan keturunan Arab dalam komedinya. Dengan memanfaatkan analisis wacana kritis Fairclough, artikel ini mengkaji humor dalam pertunjukan stand up comedy Sakdiyah yang diunggah di kanal Youtube, di antaranya “Sakdiyah Ma’ruf: Buka Tawa”; “Sakdiyah Ma’ruf - 2015 Havel Prize Acceptance Speech”; “Sakdiyah Ma'ruf | Indonesian Stand-Up Comedian”; “Sakdiyah Curhat Jadi Perempuan Arab”; “The Bravest Coward | Sakdiyah Ma’ruf |Tedxubud”; “Sa'diyah Ma’ruf Komika Santri;” dan “Stand Up Comedy Sakdiyah Ma’ruf Perdana di Tahun 2020”. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, tujuh pertunjukkan stand-up comedy tersebut merepresentasikan perempuan keturunan Arab yang dipingit, perempuan yang menikah muda, perempuan yang dianggap ahli agama, perempuan yang dianggap sebagai objek, dan citra buruk terhadap perempuan yang menjadi komika.
