Verdiløse menn is a musical written by Christopher Nielsen, based on the songs and lyrics of his brother Joachim Nielsen.
The story follows Goggen, who is alone at home and looking for company. His old friends have found jobs or partners, while Kleggen is still available. When Kleggen arrives with a six-pack and Knugern in tow, the story takes a new turn.
Throughout the production, Joachim Nielsen’s music is woven into stories about friendship, love, substance abuse, social exclusion and loss. The songs are performed by three musicians from Jokke’s former band.
The cast includes Jan Sælid, Gard B. Eidsvold, Kim Sørensen, Marte Engebrigtsen and Per Egil Aske.
The music is performed by Valentourettes, featuring Petter Baarli, Peter Pogo and Runar “Kula” Johannessen.
The production is directed and designed by Anders T. Andersen.
For more than 30 years, Oslo Gospel Choir has performed concerts in Norway and abroad. Over the years, the choir has become closely associated with Christmas music, and its Christmas concerts have become a tradition for many during the festive season.

Oslo Gospel Choir has performed more than 1,000 concerts and sold more than 2 million albums.
The Christmas concert “En stjerne skinner i natt” puts Christmas music and choral singing at the centre, featuring repertoire from the choir’s many years of Christmas performances.
