Evolution Revolution

Coming to Perth FRINGE WORLD 2025, Kate Smurthwaite’s Evolution Revolution is an interactive game show all about evolution that uses the audience themselves as the raw materials! Find out how closely related your family is to the great apes. Join a team and test your knowledge of weird and wonderful animals and win stickers, prizes and, of course, glory! Written and hosted by comedian and scientist Kate Smurthwaite, who has appeared on over 2000 TV and radio shows including ABC and the BBC and written for Have I Got News For You? and BAFTA-winning BBC3 show The Revolution Will Be Televised. Kate says "I studied evolution as part of my Environmental Sciences degree. I loved it. I got quite obsessed with it. It taught me so much about the world around me but it also taught me so much about me. That’s the thing about evolution - the proof of it and the wonders of it are right here in all of us. And yet most mutants (that’s all of us by the way) barely understand it at all. This gave me an idea. And that idea became Evolution Revolution. I hope you’ll be part of it."
