September 5 Movie- STORIES ABOUT MY BODY

Stories About My Body blends nudity, heart-swelling honesty and real birth footage into a stand-up comedy special like no other.

Virginia Fallon, Sunday Star Times – “At only two minutes in, she races on stage, all hectic energy and clad only in her very relatable undies. Already we’ve seen her dash along a street while wrapped in a towel, then see her give up the towel for a baby she’s just helped deliver, before watching her run topless across Auckland to a theatre.”

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. 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.
