Act one is based on the stories of four women who are closely related to the dancers, whilst act two is based on the diaries of a 16 year old girl, now an 82 year old woman, who generously shared her thoughts and experiences with the choreographers and dancers.

After the premiere the performance has continued on tour in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, England, Zimbawe and Tanzania. “I Wish Her Well” has continued touring across Norway and around the world until 2019.
