Matt Winning: Solastalgia

16th and 17th Feb 2026

6:45pm (60 minutes)

Acclaimed climate scientist, Dr Matt Winning (LLB, MSc, PhD), has been given an ultimatum: save the world by lunchtime tomorrow or sell his soul for a slice of Rockefeller’s fortune. But right now, he’s busy: his son is being born and he’s desperate for a piss.

From karaoke with a bunch of bankers to petrol station bathrooms and the United Nations, Solastalgia, is an epic story about fatherhood, finance and facing the future, together.

Host of Net Zero: A Very British Problem (BBC Radio 4) and author of the Best Seller Hot Mess (what on earth can we do about climate change).

Directed by double Fringe First Award winner, Ben Target (not a climate scientist).

‘Gently funny, deeply human and profoundly poignant.’ Scotsman

‘Cleverly weaves together several apparently disparate threads to make a hilarious but convincing whole.’ Three Weeks
