Solastalgia: noun (sol-a-stal-gi-a) the emotional, physical or existential distress caused by environmental change to your home. A portmanteau of the words solace and nostalgia. A new storytelling climate comedy lecture about saving ourselves in time and protecting what you love by Dr Matt Winning. Host of Net Zero: A Very British Problem (BBC Radio 4). Several previous sell-out Edinburgh Fringe shows, as well as at COP28 for BAFTA. Directed by Ben Target.

Praise for Winning's previous work:

“Informative, urgent and amusingly provocative” British Theatre Guide

“Everything a Fringe show should be: hilarious, personal, inventive, and something that will stay with you for some time to come” ★★★★★ Edinburgh Festivals

“Winning’s sharp wit and intelligence allows him to educate as he entertains in this excellent stand-up seminar” ★★★★1/2 The Sunday Post
