Attic Erratic and Platform Youth start with the word slut and show us how this word has such conflicting definitions and still has the power to cause a lot of pain.

One show left me feeling like an old slut who wanted to give the cast boxes of condoms so that they could have some fun, the other left me feeling like an old fart wanting to protect young girls and wishing that that sex wasn't such a part of their lives.

Both reviews appear on AussieTheatre.com and will be published here in a few days
