Komedi Stambul (or simply Stambul), spelled Komedie Stamboel during the Dutch colonial era, is a form of trans-ethnic Indonesian folk theatre developed lately, from the 19th-century to the mid-20th century.[1] The theatre originated in the Dutch East Indies (modern-day Indonesia).
Stambul drew inspiration from a variety of styles, including Malay, Western, and Chinese opera, as well as Middle Eastern music and operetta.
