Matt Forde has added two huge Labour names to his Political Party fortnightly residency at The Duchess Theatre. Former Labour leader Neil Kinnock joins Matt on the 10th January and deputy leader of the Labour Party Angela Rayner on the 24th January. Both promise to be electric nights of candid political analysis.

Guests on upcoming shows include the Leader of the House of Commons dubbed ‘the honourable member for the 18th century’ Jacob Rees-Mogg plus the Shadow Secretary of State for Mental Health, and potential future Labour leader, Rosena Allin-Khan who will both appear on the Political Party Christmas Special on the 20th December. Cross-party rock band MP4 complete the festive line-up, providing their usual brand of Christmas hits and political banter.

After 70 sold out Political Party shows at Westminster’s The Other Palace, Matt Forde moved to the West End’s Duchess Theatre for a fortnightly residency in September 2021. Since 2013, Forde has interviewed political figures including Keir Starmer, Nicola Sturgeon, Sadiq Khan, Julia Gillard, Tony Blair, Nigel Farage, Tessa Jowell, Alan Johnson, Michael Heseltine, William Hague and George Osborne.

The UK’s leading political podcast has over 6.6 million downloads and is regularly included in iTunes’ Top 10 comedy podcasts.
