when: 30 November 2024 | venue: Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC) | cost: From $85 to $165 | address: Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC), 1 Convention Centre Pl, South Wharf 3006By peering deep into humankind's past and dragging clues out into the light, science can now provide some of the answers to the questions that people have always asked. Who are we? Where do we come from? What does it mean to be human? Join Professor Alice Roberts live on stage for an all new show exploring humankind, genetics and archaeology.
From the first spark of life on earth 3.8 billion years ago, Professor Roberts tracks the evolution and connectivity of all living things. Follow in the footsteps of humankind's ancestors from Africa into Asia and around the Indian coastline, to Australia, north into Europe and Siberia, and, eventually, to the last continents to be peopled: the Americas. Meet some other human species along the way, examine the sophistication of some of the earliest civilisations, and explore how people know what they know and why they think what they think, what the science can tell.
This is the story of us, from single cell to civilisation.
