When I entered the fellowship program I soon felt that developing and then pursuing a “3-year plan” was a meaningful way of working. I decided that I would avoid making immediate plans for artistic work after the end of the fellowship and spend the Easter 2007 thinking of where to go next making a new long term plan. Of course I failed to do so: Easter is spent in Oslo working with Verdensteatret on upcoming productions.
