Mhairi Black has announced she will take her sell-out Edinburgh Fringe show on tour in 2025.
The former MP, who became the youngest person ever elected at Westminster at the age of 20 in 2015, hosted her own show at this year’s festival called ‘Politics Isn’t For Me’.
It sold out during her run in August and she’ll now tour around Scotland as she reflects on her time in Westminster and presents her views on 21st century politics.
Hosted with Gilded Baloon, the Paisley-born politician will have a special hometown show while also performing at the Glasgow International Comedy Festival and touring to Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Inverness, Ayr, Skye and more over the course of two months.
The 30-year-old looks at everything from anxiety to the rules of Westminster and she challenges misconceptions after politics.
After a decade in public life, she looks back on the highs and lows of modern politics and she believes it will be an exciting challenge for her.

She said: “Performing this show at the Edinburgh Fringe proved to be a lot of fun, so I’m really excited to get the chance to share a bit of that fun around Scotland. Particularly for people who weren’t able to travel or get a ticket to the Fringe.”
Tickets for her tour go on sale on Friday, November 29 at 10am.
