After an education in theatre and graphic arts, Morgan worked in a touring magic show and then in a professional theatre. In addition to performing and stage managing at the theater she learned to direct and was the resident graphic artist. In 1994, she was chosen to study at the Jim Henson Studios in New York. The same year she met Bundy and later became his assistant in his successful and long-running show, ''Spooktackular''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】''Morgan: The Quintessential Liberated Woman'' )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】John Bundy's ''Spooktacular'' website )〕 She then developed an escape-based act in her own right whilst continuing her successful involvement in Bundy's productions.
