Vashon Center for the Arts’ Families Series will present “The Tales of Two Bad Mice,” performed by the professional Seattle puppet company Thistle Theatre at 10:30 a.m. Saturday. Based on the eponymous book by Beatrix Potter, the puppet show will tell the tale of two mice that one day discover a child’s dollhouse. Frustrated by the inedible plastic food, Tom Thumb and Hunca Munca behave badly, smashing dishes, throwing doll clothing, tearing up pillows and carrying off articles to their mouse-hole. In response, the child puts a police doll outside the front door of the doll house. The question is, what will the mice do next?

Tickets are available at VCA and at vashoncenterforthearts.org.
