Zhega, a traditional folk performance popular among the Tibetan people, is well-preserved in Aba county of the Aba Tibet and Qiang autonomous prefecture in Southwest China's Sichuan province.
Actors wear white masks and brandish a crabstick, singing impromptu lyrics and expressing good wishes with dance movements.
The show can be frequently seen on the stages of the county's performance center.
