Dabing Street is a Czech comedy TV series. The plot is set in the summer of 2001 and describes what happens in a fictional dubbing company Studio ZERO after its owner dies. His widow takes over the company and tries to share the management of the studio with the employees.
The series is based on the play of the same name by Dejvické Theatre, which won the title of Best Comedy of 2013 at the XIV. of the Grand Festival of Laughter in Pardubice. The actors of the Dejvické Theatre are therefore cast in most roles.[1] Several well-known actors were cast in "civilian" roles playing themselves (e.g. cameo of Filip Švarek,[2] Jiří Bartoška, Viktor Preiss). The dubbed foreign language scenes are not from actual films, but were filmed specifically for the series.[3] It was a TV series debut for director Petr Zelenka.[4]
