Lateral invented the concept of ‘Intellectual Entertainment’; writing, producing and promoting public arts and entertainment tours with globally recognised personalities, each a leader in their field.
Lateral brings creativity, live theatre techniques, the latest technology and high production values, coupled with the greatest minds and presenters in the world, to produce thought-provoking, entertaining and educational shows in theatres and arenas; in short – intellectual entertainment.
In November Lateral will welcome Prof Alice Roberts to Australia for the world premier of live shows entitled ‘From Cell to Civilisation’. This is the story of us from the first spark of life on earth 3.8 billion years ago, we track the evolution and connectivity of all living things through to early human civilisation. Who are we? Where do we come from? What does it mean to be human?
Our past shows have included Sir David Attenborough, Prof Brian Cox, Monty Python’s Sir Michael Palin, Geoffrey Robertson KC, International Space Station Commander and astronaut Chris Hadfield, much loved author Bill Bryson, British Fat Duck chef Heston Blumenthal and many more.

This is the story of us, from single cell to civilisation.
