Can someone help correcting any errors and adding the words from the article? Thank you.

The first attachment is the original article. The second is my translation attempt with blanks for the words I do not know. Thank you.

    It looks to me like you were very close! Here's my translation. Can't quite make sense of the pun about her being 'genuine sisters' in the first sentence. And I would think that Spurgat was the name of the performing group, but how 'krystalnummer' conveys that I can't explain. Until somebody comes along who can clear those up, here's this:

    Bonny Sisters is a resident of Fyn and genuine sisters. The whole thing started when she, whom the family really did call Bonny and who had a gift for ballet and acrobatics since she was [8?] years old, got permission to drop out of school and join an artist troupe when she was just 14 years old: the crystal number also famous in Jylland, "Spurgat." With that, the 14-year-old traveled the next ten years literally-spoken around the world, a good training for standing on one's own feet.
