"'Devastating and gaspingly funny, often in the same sentence. He'll hate me for saying this but David Baddiel is so good at everything he does, he's at risk of becoming a national treasure' Hadley Freeman, author of House of Glass ‘My Family is as dark as it is funny, and it is very very dark and very very funny. Baddiel has made true art out of experience, I don't know how he does it. A masterpiece’ Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireworld 'Such a blisteringly honest book it would set fire to the word ""candid"" for being too pathetic' Caitlin Moran, author of What About Men?

Laugh out loud funny – and moving. The read of the summer' The Sunday Times Praise for My Family: Not the Sitcom (the stage show) ‘Rivetingly revealing’ Michael Billington, Guardian ‘Witty and profound’ Evening Standard ‘Wonderfully warm yet brutally frank, fearless yet very funny’ London Theatre"
