Matt Ford interviews Anas Sarwar, Jacob Rees-Mogg and Sarah Brown in three live podcast specials for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Politics Party.
On 13 August Matt will be attending the Gilded Balloon at the museum alongside Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar.
Jacob Rees-Mogg will be Matt's guest at McEwan Hall in the Underbelly on 18 August, while Sarah Brown will interview Matt at the museum's Gilded Balloon. Sarah is widely known for her charity work, to which she made a significant contribution during her time in Downing Street.
After playing over 70 sold-out performances at The Other Palace, Westminster, Political Party will move to the West End's Duchess Theatre in 2021 for a fortnightly run, with three extensions to run until 2024.
From June 3rd to July 4th, Matt began releasing a daily podcast as part of a challenge to interview candidates in all 650 precincts before Election Day.
“The Political Party” has been downloaded over nine million times, has been nominated for numerous awards from organisations such as the British Podcast Awards and Chortle Awards, and is regularly featured as a top podcast in the press.
As well as returning to the Fringe with the Political Party Special, Matt will be performing his new stand-up show, The End of an Era Tour, a month-long tour that will tour theatres across the country.
Tickets for Political Party and The End of an Era Tour are available to purchase now at mattforde.com.
