Tero Saarinen Company is a dance group founded in 1996 by its director, the Finnish dance artist and choreographer Tero Saarinen. The group's repertoire consists mainly of choreographies by Saarinen. The Company is based in Helsinki, although it mainly performs abroad. The group's rehearsal space and office are in the Alexander Theatre, where it also performs some of its small to midscale works.
Tero Saarinen Company is now considered one of Finland's leading cultural exports.[1] By the end of 2016 the group had performed in 40 countries. Its main activities also include running an international teaching programme and participating in the creation of Saarinen's choreographies for other leading dance companies around the world.[2] The group follows the network-centric organization model, and employs about 80 people each year, eleven of whom have permanent posts.[3]
The company's own works are created as international co-productions, and include many of Saarinen's best known choreographies. Tero Saarinen's rich choreographic style is characterized by multidimensional artistry – expressive dancers,[4] live music, and striking visuals.[5] His distinctive[6] movement language has been described as "organic",[6] an "inventive mixture of grotesqueness and beauty"[7] and "like Butoh with wings".[8]
