One of the UK’s most internationally acclaimed independent dance companies arrives at Studio Four at SXSW London in collaboration with Abbey Road for a special performance event not to be missed.

PCK Dance presents VESSEL — a visually arresting encounter of dance, live music, and sculptural light, featuring a newly reimagined live score created and recorded at Abbey Road by Scottish composer Sean Pett.

Founded by James Pett and Travis Clausen-Knight — former artists of Company Wayne McGregor, Richard Alston Dance Company and Michael Clark Company — PCK Dance has rapidly emerged as one of the most exciting new voices in contemporary performance.

Their cinematic productions have toured across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, earning Critics’ Circle recognition at the National Dance Awards and international acclaim for their powerful fusion of choreography, sound, and visual design.

Graham Watts OBE, Chair of the National Dance Awards, described PCK Dance as “the closest that independent contemporary dance has to celebrity” and “the next big thing.”

At the centre of this exclusive SXSW London performance is VESSEL — an electrifying work exploring instinct, identity, and human connection through visceral movement, immersive LED constellations, and live music performed in real time onstage.

Described by audiences and critics alike as “mesmerising” and “electrifying”, this specially curated event marks a rare convergence between cutting-edge contemporary dance and the legendary creative legacy of Abbey Road.

PCK Dance: VESSEL at Abbey Road: Studio Four SXSW London, Main Bar, 6pm, 4 June.
