Rezensionen
'[Higgins's] language, in this bleak comedy about a dysfunctional working-class family on the cusp of meltdown, is driven, argumentative and brutal.' Guardian, (24 November 2008) 'Nobody Will Ever Forgive Us is pugnaciously funny.' Guardian, (24 November 2008) 'Alcohol, religion, socialist rhetoric, gambling problems and familial disharmony are all here, but they come together with purpose, honesty and the vividness of first-hand experience to offer real insight into what it is to grow up in a working-class, Catholic Scots family.' Financial Times, (26 November 2008) 'This is a fine debut from Higgins and a decent bit of theatre all round.' The Times, (28 November 2008)
