Is magic real, fate, or fake? Two young award-winning female magicians hit the stage with a shredder, a $10 note and a packet of chips. They perform a miracle with this strange combination of items, while exploring the concepts of fate and fake. Nicola Marie is a teenage girl with a strong passion for magic! 2016 saw Nicola take the Australian Junior Championships of Close and Stage Magic.
