Getai roughly translates to a stage for song and dance in Singapore. This gets staged during important festivals (to entertain humans), as well as the seventh month when the gates of Hades supposedly open (to entertain non-humans).

The entertainers usually do Chinese opera, or Chinese songs for the 60s/70s.

Decided to do a quick sketch of it on a Sunday night, and decided to have a ballet dancer on the stage for change.
