The Travelling Theatre, a professional theatre company, was formed in Reykjavík, Iceland, in 1965 by Kristín G. Magnús and Halldór Snorrason -- which Kristín still runs after 42 years. The company has presented productions as varied as Drama, Comedy, Physical Theatre, Improvisation, Story Telling, Children Plays, and Musical. We have presented new plays by Icelandic playwrights at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Scotland and in London, England.

Since 1970 we have presented, in English, a series of productions under the name of LIGHT NIGHTS. A new production is presented every summer in Reykjavík and LIGHT NIGHTS productions have also toured the US. Each procuction is based on Icelandic folklore, episodes from the Sagas, historical events and traditional Icelandic culture through the ages.

The Travelling Theatre has the longest run of any theatre company in entertaining the foreign visitor in Iceland. Kristín G. Magnús has been the leading actress of LIGHT NIGHTS since the show started in 1970 and in this production she will guide you through the centuries, as story teller and actress.
