SLUTNIK™ by Flick (Festival Hub (Solidarity Hall - Melbourne Fringe)
”The script is smart and even though it’s full of ideas and dilemmas it never feels over-stuffed. It feels great to be in the hands of a writer who knows what they want to say and even though you could talk about these things for hours, Flick knows when to get in and get out.” - Keith Gow
”Playwright Flick’s script is quick-witted and amusing. The women’s rage is encapsulated in the text and in vigorous choreography.”- ArtsHub
”A massively entertaining celebration of female queerness, clear your evening to climb aboard the good ship SLUTNIK™” - Theatre Travels
"The writing and direction are going to get talked about in the future in other works.” - Sometimes Melbourne

SLUTNIK™ by Flick (Theatre Works - Midsumma Festival) ★★★★½ (RMITV)
“Theatre may never be the same.” The Age review
“…a wild and entertaining romp…” same review in The Saturday Morning Herald
“Sure it may be easy to dismiss this play as silly and fun, what with their bright pink boiler suits, a flogger wielding fembot, frequent brain-eating breaks, and scenes of women contorting around in various sex positions. But ultimately, it’s about the pain of oppression, the anger of being silenced by generations upon generations of men, and the impact that a male-dominated culture has had upon all of the people that culture was not built to serve…a very slutty 4.5/5” RMITV review
“Flick’s work is bold, unapologetic, and exactly the type of theatre we need more of on Australian stages.” Theatre Travels review
“The show-and-tell humour lands with perfection per writer and director duo Flick and Tansy Gorman’s collaborative queer theatre-making – and with some intellectual base.” Australian Arts Review
”an exploration of being a 20 something lesbian… looking a lot at finding identity within queer culture…we’ve all seen and read those stories but this goes much more deeper…” RRR Smart Arts
