Mhairi Black: Politics Isn’t for Me

Tue 10 – Sat 14 Jun 25 60 minutes
The former MP embraces her trademark dark sense of humour to reflect on her time in Westminster, providing a first-hand, ruthlessly honest look at 21st century politics.
‘A winning stage debut.”
Guardian

Mhairi became the youngest person ever elected to the House of Commons at the age of 20 and went on to make waves both in the SNP and on the wider political scene.

Following on from a sold out Edinburgh Fringe, Politics Isn’t For Me promises a behind the scenes look from someone who spent almost a decade at the heartbeat of UK politics.
