Abstract
The government's policy in preventing the transmission of COVID-19 has made many people disadvantaged. One of them is the artists, with crowd restrictions, artists cannot perform live performances during the covid-19 pandemic, so it has an impact on the economy of the artist's family. The pandemic has made artists think to introspect creative practices to support their families during the pandemic. Challenges like this make artists innovate to continue to display their creative music, by turning on a virtual stage. This virtual stage can be accessed via zoom, where each participant pays a ticket cheaper than the live show. This study uses a qualitative descriptive research method, with a sampling technique using snowball sampling. The primary data sources used in this study were documentation and direct interviews with artists in Surabaya, Sidoarjo, and Mojokerto. The sample criteria in this study were the community of artists in the field of music and theater in 3 cities, each of which amounted to 2 communities in each city, while secondary data sources were obtained from books and journals. The results showed that the virtual stage could be a solution for the economic recovery of the artist's family. Although the income is not comparable to live performances, but the virtual stage can meet daily needs. The existence of a virtual stage in terms of maqosid sharia, indirectly the artists have taken care of their souls (HifdzNafs) and their family assets (HifdzMaal), are able to stabilize the economic needs of the family and this is one of the efforts to fulfill sharia obligations in the form of HifdzNafs and Hifz Mal.
