I don't know how you couldn't get the plot behind this piece.
It is a story about a character called Mabel, played by both performers simultaneously; one as an elderly Mabel, one as a child Mabel. This was clearly denoted by the identical costuming. The younger Mabel is full of hope as she make believes life as a 'grown up' , the older Mabel wistfully remembers her past.
The tap dance enacted by the performers references the Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire film played on the black and white television.
Mabel is waiting for a man to come into her life. She gives up and goes travelling (the projection sequence), but ultimately ends up alone and reflecting on what could have been.
