"You’re finally awake! You hit your head pretty hard there. IPhones? Global recession? 100 Gecs? We don’t know what you’re talking about, but Mike’s mum ordered a pizza, and the new Jimmy Eat World video is playing on P-Rock TV…"

P-Rock The Doc
A documentary about P-Rock TV

2pm doors
£7 Adv

In the era of boybands and pop music, the early 2000s TV channels didn’t offer much for the “alternative” music scene. Two South Londoners tried to change that, starting up their own music video channel, they soared above the top dogs, until they tried to bring them down.
Through Interviews with bands, fan’s and the creator’s of P-Rock TV we look into DIY nature of the punk, ska, “alternative” music industry. Shining a light on the community this music scene has as well as answering the age old mystery of what happened to P-Rock TV.

Many elements of the story will be told through dramatizations, in style of early 2000s music videos, using mixed media such as stop motion, 2d animation as well as shooting on mini dv and film. The overall tone should be uplifting, championing forging your own path and sometimes the only way too get something done is say fuck it and do it yourself.

Our bar and main event space are on the ground floor with level access throughout and we have an accessible toilet. If you need any other info on accessibility, please contact [email protected]

Entry requirements: no age restrictions
