PRODUCTIONS
“Hinterland Dance Theatre” is a Contemporary Dance company that emerged from the need of Choreographer Fernando Pasquini to embark on his own authorial journey, alongside his existing roles as a dancer and teacher.
Hinterland, in its creations, expresses itself through a language that blends research on the physics of the body and the intense connection it has with its own interiority, a connection that is further explored in Feel&Move, an approach created in parallel with the aim of achieving physical and emotional instinctiveness.
In 2021, Hinterland, thanks to the inclusion of new dancers in the team, pursues new goals and projects, together with the reference association Feel&Move. The latest production of the company (2022) is titled “Backing” which debuts within the Festival Danza x4, organized by A.R.CO danza, an association of professional dance companies in Veneto, which supports emerging choreographers.
In 2021, “Time – The Connection” debuted at Medoacus (VI) with the first study.
