40 year old mother Julia Shaw and her 20 year old daughter Tina Shaw are a modern day Vaudevillie duo performing at many local theatres and other local performance places to entertain people and to keep themselves afloat. They're fairly successful at their field given their creative talents and lovely looks which does help. Since Julia's husband died she used her old theatre talents to support herself and Tina over the years which Tina in turn joined her mother's profession given she has the same talents as her mother. They're having a good life despite the tragedy years earlier.
That being said they needed new material lately. They're worried that the acts they're doing is risking going stale and they need to freshen things up sooner or later. Thankfully Tina noticed a new magic shop near town that just opened that promises everything they're looking for. Julia however was wondering why the shop just opened all of the sudden.
"Don't you think it's odd that the shop just came in unannounced? I'm worried that for all we know it can be just a front for some insane crime thing or whatever." Julia told Tina.
"C'mon Mom at least one look wouldn't hurt!" Tina said. "We gotta need new tricks soon and that's out best bet! Besides it's not like we can't get out tight situations. Like remember we had to fend off angry karens at the mall?"
Julia chuckled at the memory. "Yeah we had to hide in suitcases and be carried out of the mall to escape!" She sighs as she sees Tina's point. "Ok honey we'll at least scope it out."
They soon came to the shop and entered it looking for anything that catches their eye. They sees many odd items that can possibly change the game of entertainment for them.
