From Our Origins To Now

In From Cell to Civilisation Professor Alice Roberts explores the deep-time history of our species, moving beyond traditional philosophical questions to examine the cold hard evidence of our past. Taking insights from evolutionary biology and genetics, this fascinating show traces the biological lineage of humanity back to its molecular beginnings four billion years ago. With full use of the theatre's light, sound and visual possibilities to create an event that is a genuine spectacle, join Professor Roberts as she follows the physical and cultural expansion of our ancestors as they moved out of Africa and settled across the globe!

Professor Alice Roberts is an archaeologist, anatomist and TV presenter who is professor of Public Engagement in Science at Birmingham University. A regular on our TV screens since the early 2000s, Professor Roberts has shared with us the wonders of human history on shows such as Fortress Britain, Origins of Us and Coast, on BBC, Channel 4, Channel 5 and Sky.
