Prison Social Experiment Series Seeks Participants.
A new show is now holding an online casting call / audition for real people, not actors, to join the cast of a show set in a real prison.
Do you want to spend some time in a REAL working prison where you may end up being the prisoner…or the guard in charge?
Public The Agency, in collaboration with Emmy Award-winning production company Alfred Street Industries, is now casting a bold and thought-provoking new documentary series for a major streaming platform.
Get on Love Island USA 2026 – Season 8 Online Auditions
The untitled series will follow a diverse group of everyday people as they take part in a groundbreaking social experiment — one set inside a real, functioning prison. Participants will explore challenging questions about power, control, and human behavior: What would you do if you were in an environment where you had all the control — or none at all?
Other reality shows are also casting for 2026, see the listing of casting calls here.
Producers are seeking dynamic, self-aware, and open-minded individuals who are eager to test their limits and gain insight into themselves and others. This is not a scripted project or a typical reality show — it’s a raw, authentic exploration of human nature in extreme circumstances.

Important Notes:
Applicants must be everyday people — please do not apply if you are a professional actor or if you’ve been featured on another reality series within the past five years.
This is a casting call for real people seeking to challenge themselves and participate in an extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
