• Mummenschanz • 8 p.m. • Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts • 3680 Walnut St. • $28-$48.

From the Annenberg website: “Using ordinary materials such as toilet paper, white sheets, foam and recycled junk that morph into giant balloons, huge slinkies, gargantuan potato heads and accordion-pleated tubes, this beloved Swiss company tells incredible stories that transcend the need for words.” That sounds kind of interesting.

Here they are (Oh, and it’s supposed to be quiet):

• Christmas Bazaar • 9 a.m. • Mercy Hospital lower atrium • 501 S. 54th St.

The bazaar will include jewelry, clothing, handcrafted items, artwork and more.

• Manga Cafe • 3 p.m. • Lucien E. Blackwell West Philadelphia Regional Library • 125 S. 52nd St.

Teen and ‘tween manga fans are invited to read, draw and chat about their favorite Japanese comics. Art supplies will be provided and Japanese snacks will be served.
