Up to now, the hight level API and thus PyQt are required to get an OpenGL context.
GLFW http://www.glfw.org (recommended by vispy dev Nicolas rougier) seems a good alternative to the quite old GLUT. A Python binding based on ctypes is available at https://github.com/rougier/pyglfw Moreover a CFFI python binding will permit to run demos on pypy, which is not possible actually.
