Information for guardians and children who intend to participate in auditions for the production The Driem thief
The mission of the The National Theatre of Iceland (NTI) is that the production of Draumaþjófurinn will be a spectacular show that will captivate audiences of all ages, while also being an extremely enjoyable experience for all participants in the project.

All children living in Iceland between the ages of 9 – 13 are invited to participate in the auditions by submitting electronic recordings of singing, acting and dancing.
When submitting, you must enter the email address and the consent of your parents/guardian.
