You can use the osascript utility to send commands to itunes, and invoke it
from Python
like this:
import subprocess
listname = "My Playlist"
subprocess.call(["osascript", "-e", "tell application \"iTunes\" to play
playlist
\"{0}\"".format(listname)])
But that seems overkill (using Python to use Applescript to control iTunes)...
