Christopher Robbie is Charles Darwin
in "Beyond Paradise", a one-man play
on the life and work of Charles Darwin.

Christopher Robbie portrays Charles Darwin, the Victorian scientist famed for his theory of evolution by natural selection.

This one-man play touches lightly on Darwin the scientist and then focuses in on Darwin the man. Likeable and deeply thoughtful, he did not set out to contradict the Bible or rock the establishment. Yet his theory of evolution by natural selection had tremendous impact in its day and is still a powerful tool today in the study of life, past and present, on this planet.

". . . perfectly encapsulates Darwin as a family man at Down House, Darwin as an experimenter and observer, and Darwin as a thinker and a writer." - John Thackray, Natural History Museum Archivist
