About event:
VALUELESS MEN TO ARENDAL CULTURAL CENTER!
The legendary Jokke musical Worthless Men visits Arendal on Friday, September 17, 2027.
The musical is written by Christopher Nielsen, based on his brother Joachim Nielsen's immortal songs and lyrics, which are performed in the play by three musicians who all played in Jokke's band.
Worthless Men has been sold out since its premiere in 2008 and is more popular than ever, now seen by over 100,000!
Goggen is sitting alone at home, is socially awkward and notices that old friends have gotten jobs or women. Kleggen, however, is free, and eventually shows up with a six-pack of beer, with Knugern in tow, and with a bit of news...
This is how Christopher Nielsen's musical, Verdiløse menn, opens, where the songs of Joachim Nielsen are woven into stories about women and drugs, begging and beer, dead friends and immortal friendship. It's hard to get much further off Broadway!
Direction and set design are by Anders T. Andersen.
On stage we meet Jan Sælid, Gard B. Eidsvold, Kim Sørensen, Marte Engebrigtsen and Per Egil Aske.
Musicians: Valentourettes with Petter Baarli, Peter Pogo and Runar "Kula" Johannessen
