摘要：This article discusses the significance of Dramaturg in performing arts. Apart from that, this article aims to look into the standardised definition which needs to be modified to define Dramaturg specifically in the context of performing arts in Malaysia. In Malaysia, the term Dramaturg is rarely used by any performing arts researchers. Researchers are more inclined to use terms such as dramatists, directors and publishers to refer to an individual who visualised performances on stages, not realising that the term ‘Dramaturg’ itself has included all fields mentioned. The limited research resources on Dramaturg in Malaysia caused the involvement of a Dramaturg not being prioritised in any performing art. Due to that, this article chose a comedian, actor, host and director known as Mohd Sabri Yunus or his stage name Sabri Yunus as a research sample in this article. The data and written information in this article were obtained from the approaches practised in G.E. Lessing Dramaturg Model and Berger Humour Theories, which focuses on qualitative analysis to process the findings of this research. The findings of this article summarised the significance of Dramaturg as a highly-impactful essence in comedy performances in Malaysia. Through this documentation, Sabri Yunus’ role as a Comedy Dramaturg can be interpreted, hence summarising the role of Dramaturg in helping to deliver values to performing arts through the issues and questions portrayed. Finally, from Dramaturgy, he will give impact on the society’s lives and social.
