The creator of Srimulat, Teguh Slamat Rahardjo, tried to bring the group to an end in 1990. Nevertheless, ‘srimulatism’—a term to describe a certain type of humor, way of joking and body gestures, as well as certain scenes performed by the Srimulat comedy group—is to this day still popular. It is not only its members who keep the Srimulat recipe for comedy alive but also many non-members as well. Teguh’s son Eko Saputro is preparing Srimulat to become a truly professional comedy group.
