Abstract

This research analyzed the concept of magical realism in the Bantengan (Bull) Show, especially to find irreducible elements; phenomenal worlds; converging nature; unsettling doubts; and disruptions of time, space, and identity. The method used to uncover these aspects is the qualitative descriptive method. The data is achieved by observing the Bantengan performance via live performances, videos, and pictures. Theoretically, this research found magical realism in the data. Practically for researchers, this research is expected to broaden scientific horizons and can be used as a guideline in conducting research, especially about traditions that develop in society. For the community, this research is expected to provide an overview of the actual Bantengan performance and inform the public that Bantengan show contains the meaning of performance with magical realism value. The results of this study consist of five (5) elements that will represent the concept of magical realism value in the Bantengan Show. Those results include making the movements of the show harmonically matched with the music from kendang and jidor, until one inseparable element of the show called Bantengan trance or ndadi which attracts people to watch.
