The nightly guests have been announced for the forthcoming Guilty Feminist tour which starts on May 1.
The Guilty Feminist podcast, hosted by Deborah Frances-White has become one of the most listened to and downloaded podcasts today. Described by Phoebe Waller-Bridge in The Guardian as “hilarious, irreverent, eternally surprising, classy as hell genius”, it has previously featured guests including Jessica Hynes, Gemma Arterton, Andi Osho, Hannah Gadsby, Jenny Éclair and Emma Thompson. In addition to the regular podcast, a number of special episodes at venues like The London Palladium, The Barbican and The Sydney Opera House covering high-profile topics including The Suffragette Centenary and The Windrush Generation have also been broadcast.
In the show Deborah Frances-White and her guests discuss their noble goals as 21st century feminists and their hypocrisies and insecurities which undermine those goals.
For this special touring version of the show, The Guilty Feminist: Live, Deborah will be joined by some of your favourite comedy and musical guests from the podcast for a celebration of how far we’ve come, and a conversation about what still very much needs to be done. As well as top comedy and musical talent, Deborah will be inviting a range of local activists and charities to join her on-stage panel as they delve in to a myriad of topics facing us today.
