Museum of Memories opened in April this year and went
on its first tour last week. In NIE we want to take all our work on tour.
Museum of Memories is a special case. The set is made out of more than two tons
of rusty steel, and the venue is an inflatable tent that we bring with us. First time we mounted the installation it
took us eight hours with twelve people.

We started off with
rehearsals inside in our venue in Dikemark. The new technical crew Marketa and
Honza needed to get to know the set without to much wind and rain.
The cast
has arrived. Iva and Guri recap text.
The tent is actually two tents joined together. They weigh about 300
kg`s each and are easy to put up with three people. This Sunday morning
someone managed to run out of petrol, so I was left alone with the
seagulls and the tent. Initially I was supposed to be there to look
after that everything went smooth and nice before the evening
performance After some swearing I did get it up alone, and a young fan that was on a early Sunday walk kept my spirits up telling me how she liked NIE`s work.

After three nice performances in Fredrikstad we

continued the tour. At the end of the tour the riggigng time had gone from 4 hours to 40 minutes. That is thou without the tent - that takes a couple of hours.
