I feel like the people from Iceland have a different relationship with their country than other places. Most Icelandic people are really proud to be from there and we don't have embarrassments like World War II where we were cruel to other people.
I think theatre is by far the most rewarding experience for an actor. You get 4 weeks to rehearse your character and then at 7:30 pm you start acting and nobody stops you acting with your entire soul.
