          Abstract


          In English

          This paper charts the increasing involvement of women performers in Balinese topeng (mask dance) and emerged from discussions and emails among the authors. Following an overview explaining women’s traditional absence from this form and noting the pioneering women who have been at the forefront of change, the authors discuss how, as non-Balinese female performers and researchers, they discovered that they shared many similar stories, curiosities, and challenges relating to their training and experiences. Their insights provide a detailed picture of some important issues for women in Asian theatre.

          Artikel ini menggambarkan meningkatnya keterlibatan penari perempuan pada tari topeng Bali serta terlahir dari diskusi dan email diantara penulis. Mengikuti gambaran umum yang menjelaskan masih jarangnya perempuan tampil dalam bentuk kesenian ini yang disertai catatan sejumlah perempuan perintis yang telah berada di garis depan perubahan, penulis membahas bagaimana, sebagai pemain dan peneliti non-Bali, mereka menemukan sejumlah cerita, rasa penasaran, dan tantangan yang tidak jauh berbeda dengan pelatihan dan pengalaman mereka sendiri. Pemikiran mereka menyediakan gambaran detil terkait beberapa isu penting bagi perempuan di dunia teater Asia.
