One thing that is not to be underestimated is American cultures influence on the rest of the world.
My working history as an actor is definitely in the theatre; it certainly was in Australia.

Prison makes an interesting context for so many different characters to come together. You get to see what lines get drawn between people.
In Australia, kids play in American accents.
