Acclaimed author, anthropologist and broadcaster Professor Alice Roberts delivers a brand new live show, "From Cell to Civilization"

Acclaimed author, anthropologist and broadcaster Professor Alice Roberts delivers a brand new live show, "From Cell to Civilization". This state-of-art multimedia experience will take us on the thrilling journey of humankind from the first spark of life 3.8 billion years ago, to the rise of early civilizations across the globe. It will explore the connectivity of all things and examine our past and our present through the lens of genetics and archaeology. We will learn how we know what we know, and why we think what we think. This is the story of us, from a single cell to civilization.


As seen on BBC and Channel 4, Professor Alice Roberts is an award-winning anatomist, anthropologist and author. She has been the recipient of the Royal Society's David Attenborough Award and has presented over one-hundred TV series on human biology, history, and archaeology such as Digging for Britan The Incredible Human Journey, Origins of Us, Ice Age Giants, Ancient Egypt by Train, Curse of the Ancients, and Royal Autopsy.
