Other regions of mainland China have similar performance traditions, such as huaji farces in the Shanghai dialect or the lachang opera of northeast China. Although they are not identical in form, all of them have sprung up from homegrown native-dialect comic performances.
大陸其他地方也有類似的表演，如用上海話說的「滑稽」，以及用東北話說的「拉場戲」，形式雖非完全相同，但都是從各自的本土母語發展出的逗趣表演。
