Morgana is an actress who is known mostly for her work in the Theatre. Most of her celebrated work requires her to talk to herself as numerous different people. Little do people know, it's exactly what she does at home, in front of the mirror, and now they are paying to watch it. Josephine is a 2008 graduate of Unitec. Since graduating she has appeared in Ruby Tuesday, Awhi Tapu and the Short + Sweet Theatre Festival. Her favourite food is bacon and butter.

Height of the Eiffel Tower, The

Synopsis:
the Height of the Eiffel Tower is a fresh and defiant one woman show performed by the irrepressibly talented Morgana O'Reilly. Morgana was cast in Silo theatre's original Ensemble Project; she then stepped in to Toa Fraser's Bare, and was seen on our TV screens in A Thousand Apologies. She was voted the 'Best Emerging Actor' in 2007 by Metro Magazine and NZ Listener. This is a hilarious and at times heart breaking portrayal of a mother-of-four trying to become the person she always intended to be. Terri Hulme has become an orange poncho wearing, craft making, Master of keeping-it-together. Meet the family - Anna-Louise is 16, pregnant and has no respect for her mother. Nathan is 13, awkward and seems oblivious to the strange and ridiculous family life that surrounds him. Duncan is 23 and 'moved out about a year ago,' and Katie, Terri's beloved first born, is in Europe, discovering the perks of hand modelling while struggling to find her place in the world. We follow Terri through a side-splitting, torturous and hugely awakening lunch date with an old friend from university - she's what Terri could have been. . . she is successful, stylish and wealthy. Watch the spectrums change, from pastels to primary and back again. It's a colour therapy thing - you be the judge. An appreciation of the ultimate sacrifice. Laugh, cry, and ultimately win. there's a Terri Hulme in all of us.
