Óskar Eiriksson

Based in Reykjavik Iceland, Óskar Eiriksson, along with partners, started the world-renowned Production Company Theater Mogul in 1999. Since then, they have been mounting, investing, co-producing and producing successful theatre productions internationally, from the USA to South America, Europe, Asia and South Africa.

Their original production was the international and Broadway hit comedy Defending the Caveman and Theater Mogul produces and mounts up to 150 performances, every month of the year playing to packed houses in over 150 cities worldwide. In addition to the hugely successful Caveman, Óskar currently produces the hysterical comedy hit Defending the Cavewoman – the long running retort to the Caveman. Also, the hilarious American three-hander Triple Espresso. Óskar has also produced or promoted international hits such as the successful Shaolin Monks, Menopause the Musical, The Blues Brothers, Umoja, Lovelace- A Rock opera, Sexy Laundry and also 100% Sex Therapy, in Europe, South Africa and Iceland.

Theater Mogul’s New York debut was Silence! The Musical, a critically acclaimed comedy based on the classic cult movie Silence of the lambs. Theater Mogul then went on to co-produce the award-winning Broadway musical Groundhog Day which premiered in September 2017. The premiere of Friends! The Musical in 2018, based on the hit television series, marked yet another great success in New York with rave reviews and has since opened in the U.K., Las Vegas, Australia, New Zealand and Poland and is set to follow with more worldwide productions.

Theater Mogul and Oskar most recently co-produced the full length feature film CAVEMAN with Constantin Films, Germany's biggest film studio, based off of the hit show Defending the Caveman. A documentary about the Caveman adventure and the last ten years of Theater Mogul's success was also produced by Constantin during the film production.

With his very personal, creative and hands on approach to theatre production, Oskar works with partners and friends world-wide and continues to open Theater Mogul’s current shows in new markets while always keeping his ear to the ground for new fresh talent and original productions.
