<![CDATA[This article examines two performance models of Reyog Ponorogo: the festival model and the obyokan model.

The findings reveal that the obyokan model emphasizes an egalitarian spirit, allowing artists greater aesthetic freedom and providing the community with a sense of belonging in Reyog culture.
