Aza, the hardened daughter of a crime lord, and Max, a disillusioned thief desperate to leave the business, are tasked with retrieving a mysterious item. As they navigate a world of mercenary soldiers, hidden agendas, and a looming shadow organization, their fractured past and lingering connection threaten to unravel. Meanwhile, an agent known only as the Huntswoman fights to hold onto her mission—and her sanity—after a failed operation leaves her partner incapacitated. As the game of cat and mouse escalates, a severed hand, a locked safe, and a hallucinatory pink scarf become cryptic threads in a deadly web of intrigue.

In a tiny theatre in Aotearoa, New Zealand, four teenage stagehands work tirelessly to help Morgana tell the stories that shaped her - from her own teenagehood in 1998, to working foot-fetish parties in New York City, to falling in love and later birthing her babies in a Melbourne living room. By turns vulnerable and riotously funny, she moves from lamenting her chins to marvelling at her cellular functions, using her body as the living template for every tale she tells. Created and performed by Morgana O'Reilly (The White Lotus) and co-directed with her husband and real-life birth partner, 2025 BAFTA nominee Peter Salmon (After The Party), Stories About My Body blends nudity, heart-swelling honesty and real birth footage into a stand-up comedy special like no other - intimate, fearless and unexpectedly profound.
