Stand-up mathematician Matt Parker, experiments maestro Steve Mould and geek songstress Helen Arney bring their infamous science cabaret night to Winchester Cathedral, joined by two scintillating guest stars: Professor Jen Gupta and Professor Lucie Green who provided guidance to Luke Jerram for his Helios artwork.

With sell-out shows across the UK and over a million podcast downloads, it’s the night where scientists, enthusiasts, miscellaneous experts* and/or comedians talk about whatever they want in outrageous detail, from the Big Bang to Space Telescopes and everything in between.
