Reviews:
Dark, dirty and dynamically staged Vox Motus’ 2008 Fringe Festival hit SLICK is a very adult comedy exploring greed, corruption and loss-of-innocence.
In the toilet pipes of a desolate tenement lurks an oily secret that is about to tear its tiny community apart. Literally. At the centre of it all is Little Malcolm Biggar, a nine year old with a passion for his skateboard, a harrowing fear of his lunatic neighbours, and a growing suspicion that perhaps his parents do not always have his best interests at heart….
