On the venue's site

in the dark brings PULSE to Cutty Sark for two nights only.

Thirty live musicians. No stage. No amplification. The entire space underneath the Cutty Sark’s mighty copper hull transformed by live, ever-moving, 360° sound.

After two years bringing its award-winning original show - HUSH - to Cutty Sark, in the dark returns with PULSE, a new live experience built around rhythm, movement and the extraordinary possibilities of choreographed sound in darkness.

Beneath the hull of one of the world's most famous ships, thirty musicians perform around and amongst the audience, moving through the space as the music unfolds.

You hear a voice behind you, then it moves. An instrument passes in front of you, then fades away. The sound is distant, then close. Loud, then quiet. It’s ever-changing, and all in darkness. You're not watching musicians perform, you're sitting at the centre of the music itself.

This is PULSE. And it's unlike anything you've heard before.
