Meet Phoebe Jewitt

Choreographer

Phoebe Jewitt is an award-winning choreographer, artistic director and founder of PITT, a Switzerland-based contemporary dance company.

Her choreographic voice is defined by a cinematic approach to movement and composition, shaped by a distinctive movement language that explores human nature, relationships and social dynamics.

A graduate of Zürich University of the Arts with a BA in Contemporary Dance, she performed with TanzLuzern for six seasons before founding PITT in 2022. Her work now tours internationally.

Phoebe has created works for institutions including TanzLuzern, ZHdK, Opera Luzerner Theater, Ballet Arabesque, Brückerei and DAF Dance Arts Faculty. Upcoming commissions include BalletX, Theater Rostock, Theater Krefeld, Kennesaw State University, and VERVE.

Phoebe has won multiple awards for her work, including the Honorary Jury Award and two Production Awards at Copenhagen International Choreography Competition. She is also a recipient of the Migros Kulturprozent Award (twice), the Migros Ideation Grant, Residenzzentrum Tanz+, and two Aargauer Kuratorium research grants.
