Hi. Jack Plotnick here!
I'm the actor who created Evie Harris.
***IMPORTANT***
If you are a fan of GIRLS WILL BE GIRLS, you can see all our BRAND NEW internet short films on our website by clicking on the image right below!
Here they are in order...The last one is MY ABSOLUTE FAVE!
First up, "The Jizz Party"-
Here's "Girl Stalk Part 1"-
"Girls Stalk Part 2"
People ask me who Evie is based on, but it's not just one person. She's a combination of a lot of old stars I've loved...and this completely over-the-top infomercial woman from the early 90's.
I discovered that old wig at a thrift store, and it's the only one I've ever worn as Evie. (Except when I played young Evie in GIRLS WILL BE GIRLS.) I'm embarrassed to say that I wore it for years before washing it.
The name "Evie" was picked out of thin air, because it seemed right.
The last name of "Harris" I stole from the most waspy girl I went to high school with: Rachel Harris. Since that time, Rachel has become quite a celebrity herself, just google her!
I owe so much to my friends Dennis Hensley, Seth Rudetsky and Richard day, who have all written some pretty sick and genius material for her.
The Genesis of GIRLS WILL BE GIRLS:
Evie first performed with Coco at the Aid For Aids benefit, QUEST FOR THE CROWN. We co-hosted for three years together.
Dennis and I were inspired to make a short film about Evie, and Richard Day helped out with a ton of terrific jokes.
To see the film "Evie Harris: Shining Star", just go to:

When Richard saw the finished film he was very excited to have found a mouthpiece for his particular brand of twisted humor. So, one night I suggested to Richard that we do a film with Evie and Coco, to which he reponded, "No, let's do a film with Evie, Coco and VARLA!" ...And the rest is history.
I AM AVAILABLE TO PERFORM AS EVIE at your birthday party, baby shower, Bar-Mitzvah or bris!
My friend Dennis Hensley and I can hand-tailor a 10-20 minute act for your party. The fee is negotiable.
