Designer's notes: 
I Wish Her Well is a contemporary dance performance created by Norwegian Dance Company Panta Rei. It is in two parts; the first illustrating the lives and relationships of women who were close to the dancers involved in creating the piece, and the second describing events and feelings experienced by the choreographer's Grandmother when she was a teenager. The tour included 10 shows at different venues in Wiltshire, Somerset, Dorset, Devon and Cornwall as well as 8 dance workshops. Using a Land Rover and Trailer combination to transport people, technical equipment and scenography was the best solution for this rural tour. I was also required to adapt the lighting to work in the small venues with the available equipment. This proved very rewarding and I was able to re-create a lot of the intention of the original design at this smaller scale.
