Skrekkur

Skrekkur is an annual talent competition for primary school students in Reykjavík. Primary schools with a adolescent division can send one act to the competition. The competition is arranged such that up to 24 schools will compete in semi-finals at the Reykjavík City Theater over three nights, culminating in the finals on the fourth night.
