The incident happened on Sept 3, at around 10.15pm.
When Lianhe Wanbao rushed down to the scene, they found the auntie who removed the seat, bleeding from her face.
A 66-year-old witness told reporters that the spectator, another elderly woman in blue, had tugged at the auntie’s collar and the two got into a scuffle.
The witness, a regular at the getai shows, said that the fight had arisen when the auntie attempted to place the spectator’s chair back in a stack as the show was ending.
However, the spectator wanted to continue watching, and the two started fighting.
The witness added:
“The auntie’s intention to help show organisers clear up the chairs is good, but her attitude towards others was not.
“Many of the audiences could have been offended.”
A spokesman for the show reminded the public that matters like these should be resolved through discussions.
He said:
“The getai performances are meant for everyone to enjoy themselves, so let’s work together to maintain the order here.” (stomp.straitstimes.com)
