OKTOBERDANS, 2018
DANSENS HUS OSLO FOAJE, 2018
NULL is a tribute to the songs that have received zero points in the Eurovision Song Contest throughout the years, and consists of a number of dance solos.
"When the last performance, Marie Bergby Handeland and Morten Liene's wonderful tribute to the zero-point songs from the Eurovision Song Contest, was over, the showroom at USF exploded in pure ecstasy and relief." (…) When Marie Bergby Handeland, Morten Liene and a number of selected dancers and non-dancers had fearlessly thrown themselves into the flops of Eurovision Song Contest history, thereby bringing them to an honor and dignity they may never have had before.
