Reservoir Dolls

Erika Anne Sorensen reimagines Quentin Tarantino's violent pulp classic for women in "Reservoir Dolls", directed by Marti Gobel. When a bank heist goes wrong with deadly consequences, the surviving thieves must figure out who among them is the mole that betrayed them all before it's too late. 

With femxle-led action scripts like "Gunpowder Milkshake" and "The Long Kiss Goodnight" all-too-rare in Hollywood and almost nonexistent on theatrical stages, Riot Productions presents "Reservoir Dolls" during International Women's Month to push back on assumptions: is violence a genre reserved only for men? How do women talk when they're alone? If it's jarring to hear women speak with this kind of profane, graphic language...why? Are women capable of this kind of brutality to each other?

Staged reading starring Delia Mejia, Ruth Russell, Portia Gregory, Kylie Young, Kaylin Saur, Marisa Lopes, Trixi Agyao, Alyssa Schechter and Dave Rivas, with Jamie Feinstein. Presented at the MOXIE Theatre Venue, through the generous support of the Conrad Prebys Foundation. 

WARNING: This script contains graphic, profane language which may be shocking to some audiences.
