Benefit concert (2010)

In 2010, Alexander Eik initiated a concert for Haiti, which was a benefit concert to raise money for the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. The concert was arranged by an action group consisting of a dozen people from Norwegian cultural life, where Eik was one of the project leaders. A number of well-known artists performed at the concert, which was performed at the National Opera's stage and broadcast live on NRK on 24 January 2010, with Princess Märtha Louise present. The event raised NOK 24 million, with the proceeds going to the Norwegian Church Aid, UNICEF, and the Red Cross' relief work in Haiti.

Atlantic Crossing (2020)

Alexander Eik is also the series creator of the Emmy Award-winning series Atlantic Crossing, an eight-episode drama series about Crown Princess Märtha of Norway and other Norwegian royal family's experiences during World War II. In Norway, the series caused fierce debate, and several historians publicly stated that the portrayal of the Crown Princess's significance for the role the United States played in the war was roughly signed, and that other historical figures also attributed words and actions that were far removed from how these individuals appeared in reality. The series creators were also criticized for the series by the Norwegian Broadcasting Council.
