About the Project
Lani Harms brings her razor sharp solo comedy show about what it takes to survive in a man’s world back to the Hollywood Fringe with brand new multimedia elements, new characters and a full hour runtime! Written and performed by Lani Harms and directed by Laurie Magers, Reservoir Dolls premiered in LA with a sold out run at the 2025 Hollywood Fringe Festival. The show had a New York premiere last fall as an official selection at the NY Comedy Festival, playing to a full house at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater NY.
What do a deadly assassin, a South Bay stoner, a crime lord’s wife, and an undercover German spy have in common? They’re all women from the twisted mind of Quentin Tarantino. Known for graphic violence and profane language, his film universe is not one you would want to find yourself in without a katana or a pistol handy.
So when Atlanta Springfield, a barefoot call girl in a seedy Los Angeles bar, suddenly realizes she’s a woman in Tarantino’s tenth and final film, she runs for her life. But standing in her way are all the women who came before her.

-Earnest Kearny, The TVolution
“The marvellously talented and gorgeous Lani Harms effortlessly navigates the characters and the beast of Quentin and gives a performance I dare anyone to better… This is an utterly brilliant Hollywood Fringe show!!”
