WHAT THIS STORY EXPLORES
Culture Shock follows a group of acting students whose vastly different backgrounds, personalities, and ideas about the world collide inside the strange, intense ecosystem of a BFA conservatory. Told through a mockumentary lens, the series uses the absurdity of actor training, campus life, and cultural misunderstandings to explore identity, belonging, friendship, and what happens when people who may never have crossed paths anywhere else are asked to grow alongside one another.
What happens when people from completely different worlds are forced to truly know one another?
...
“But no yeah, acting school seems… fun.”
