SUMMARY:Chautauqua Theater Company presents the world premiere of The Witnesses (formerly titled Tell Me You’re Dying)
DESCRIPTION:By C.A. Johnson\nDirected by Jade King Carroll  \nThe Witnesses compels us to question not only if we can change but if we have time to do so while the world appears to be ending.\nInfused with C.A. Johnson’s brutal honesty\, exacting humor\, and heartfelt exploration of human relationships\, the story pulses with urgency\, vulnerability and unexpected warmth. \nWhile an apocalyptic plague rages\, five individuals unite in their weekly support group to forge a sanctuary of care and companionship. Centering on the darkly funny and wildly magnetic Millicent and her chosen family of misfits\, this play explores the undeniable physical urge for human connection. \nThis production is recommended for audiences ages 13 and older.

SUMMARY:Ella Al-Shamahi
DESCRIPTION:Ella Al-Shamahi is a National Geographic Explorer\, palaeoanthropologist\, evolutionary biologist (and stand-up comic) who specializes in Neanderthals\, caves\, and expeditions in hostile\, disputed\, and unstable territories. In closing a week dedicated to the ways that past informs present — and the 2025 Chautauqua Lecture Series season — Al-Shamahi will take the audience on a transformative journey into the world of human evolution\, using her expertise in our shared human history to explain why we need to understand our recent ancestors’ failures in order to chart a better future.  \nIn addition to her work in the field\, Al-Shamahi is a television presenter and producer. Her latest project\, produced by BBC Studios Science Unit and co-produced by PBS\, is “Human\,” the story of how humanity went from being just one of many hominin species to the dominant form of life on earth. Coming to PBS in 2025\, “Human” uses a combination of archaeology\, storytelling\, and reconstruction to tell the story of how we became “us” (modern humans).   \nOther work includes the BBC’s recently launched seven-year diary titled “Our Changing Planet”; the BBC Two’s science series “Neanderthals: Meet Your Ancestors\,” as well as “Horizon: Body Clock – What Makes Your Body Tick”; a National Geographic show on Viking warrior women; and\, with her journalist brother Abubakr Al-Shamahi\, a five-part BBC World Service radio series commemorating and reflecting on the 10-year anniversary of the Arab Spring.     \nThe author of The Handshake: A Gripping History\, Al-Shamahi holds a Bachelor of Science in genetics from University College London\, a Master of Science in taxonomy and biodiversity from Imperial College London/Natural History Museum\, and is currently undertaking a Ph.D. in Neanderthal rates of evolution at University College London.
