Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi kehadiran penari laki-laki pada kesenian Lengger di Banyumas pada 1970-an sampai 1998 dan respons masyarakat terhadap penari laki-laki yang berpenampilan feminim dalam kesenian Lengger di Banyumas pada 1970-an sampai 1998. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian sejarah menurut Kuntowijoyo, yaitu pemilihan topik, pengumpulan sumber, verifikasi, interpretasi, penulisan. Hasil penelitian menjelaskan bahwa Lengger merupakan kesenian yang mengekspresikan rasa syukur akan keberhasilan panen dengan menggunakan peran gender dan tampilan yang unik, namun sempat terhambat kepopulerannya karena belenggu politik Orde Baru. Dengan perlahan para seniman Banyumas membangkitkan kembali Lengger sehingga kesenian ini tidaklah punah
