Culture Clash Roleplay

The same scene, two different cultures, performed live.

The format

A common business scenario (a negotiation, a complaint, a first meeting) is acted out twice: once the way one culture handles it, once the way the other does. Watching the difference play out teaches more about Mexican business culture than any lecture.

How it works

A simple structure, useful conversations.

  1. A short scenario is chosen in advance

  2. Volunteers act it out "the foreign way," then "the local way"

  3. The room discusses what changed, why it matters, and how to adapt
