Top Performance

Synopsis

Mickey is pressured by Minnie into portraying a girl for a school play. On his way to the auditorium, his car has a flat tire which is fixed by a man who is actually a crook. He and his partner plan to swindle the Beeler heirs out of their inheritance by taking their place before the attorney arrives. Unfortunately, they need a female to portray Mrs. Beeler, and that's where Mickey fits into their scheme. Not realizing that he is actually a male, they force the mouse to play the part of Mr. Beeler's wife, but the enterprising Mickey soon spoils their crooked plans.

Notes

The title of the original story was "Top Performance." The story begins on the cover. 26 panels, or approximately 3 pages, have been edited out.
