In the spring program of BIT Teatergarasjen 2000 the following is written about SKUDD! 2000!* (SHOT! 2000!):

"That there are things going on in Norwegian performing arts circles should not be doubted. Primarily connected to the cities and sometimes strangled by the media's narrow emphasis on established theatre venues and institutions, the smaller performers on the art stagemust shine extra strongly to reach a larger audience. The month of June at BIT Teatergarasjen is dedicated to the first part of this year's three-part promotion and presentation of young Norwegian artists, all with the potential and will to get their part of the limelight.

SKUDD! 2000! will work as a recruitment and development project aiming to strengthen these performers. In collaboration with European Capital of Culture Bergen 2000, BIT Teatergarasjen, Performing Arts Hub Norway/The National Touring Network for Performing Arts most of the Norwegian counties also support the project, getting in front of a national cultural exchange project as a parallel to and within the international exchange of the cultural capitals.

The dancer and choreographerEllen Johannesen is among the first to perform during SKUDD! 2000!. With her strong stage charisma and revealed personal involvement, she distinguishes thematically in Beings of a lesser kind with its longing for a fundamental religious experience, in the form of anorexic, extreme asceticism. The expression as well as the theme is different when the theatre company Avslørte Bondepiker gets Balladen om kukksugar Jones* (The ballad of c**ksucker Jones) going, a theatrical piece with an edge in humour and narration.

SKUDD! 2000! will be a presentation of Norwegian breadth within the genres of theatre and dance."
