Overview
A stand-up comedy show by Matt Winning at Monkey Barrel Comedy in Edinburgh, in which a climate scientist faces an unusual ultimatum on the eve of his son's arrival. Seats are allocated to every ticket holder.
Solastalgia is a stand-up comedy show built around a climate scientist, Dr Matt Winning, who is handed an ultimatum: save the world by lunchtime the next day or sell their soul for a share of Rockefeller's fortune. The timing is awkward, as a son is on the way. The story moves from karaoke with a group of bankers to petrol station toilets and the United Nations, linking fatherhood, finance and the future.
The performance runs for about 100 minutes including an interval, and every ticket includes a seat. Strong language appears only occasionally. Matt Winning is also the host of Net Zero: A Very British Problem on BBC Radio 4 and the author of Hot Mess, a book on what can be done about climate change. The production is directed by Ben Target, a double Fringe First Award winner.
Monkey Barrel Comedy is a year-round comedy club in Edinburgh that has hosted Edinburgh Comedy Awards winners.
