Being a Foreign Performer in the USA
April 4th, 2008
We know that many of the best actors and actresses as well as singers are imported from other nations. Not only can the stresses of being a performer wear on you, but long distance friendships left behind and stresses of a new culture can be very emotionally draining. A few tips for surviving follow.
Take things as they come at you. Don’t try to drink in the whole cultural experience all at once. Just take a step at a time. Slowly but surely you’ll pick up what you need to know in order to survive in a strange culture. Also, try to assume the best in people. They’re generally good. Americans can be very sarcastic, so don’t take things too seriously if you’re not used to such interaction. Be patient. Remember that your background and culture are just as strange to others as theirs is to you. Try to put yourself in others’ shoes and consider that, again, most people are pretty good and just want to be happy.
Another key to surviving is to stay in touch with your roots. A calling card is a sound investment. It’s nice to have a solid foundation with some support from friends and family. They know your culture and where you come from and can really serve as an anchor. Get a reasonably priced phone card and remember to keep in touch. Family and friends not only lend support but are a great emotional outlet for sharing feelings of fear or misunderstanding in a new place. Just remember to get an international calling card and not a domestic. Believe it or not, such a thing exists and does *not* let you call internationally without exorbitant costs.
So just hang in there. We’re glad you’re in the US and hope you make the most of your time here. Enjoy the country but keep in touch with home and you’ll do great.
