Using SSML in Python script/program

[Samuel M.]

I need to use SSML (Synthesized Speech Markup Language) to play an audio file with the tag in my Alexa Skill (as per Amazon's instructions).

Problem is, I don't know how to use SSML with Python. I know I can use it with Java but I want to build my skills with Python. I've looked all over, but haven't found any working examples of SSML in a Python script/program - does anyone know?

Any help is much appreciated!
