About

Hi! I’m Matt Dorado, a writer, director, and producer of immersive theatre and experiential entertainment.

Prior to the pandemic, you may have known me as the creator of DRUNKEN DEVIL, a theatrical party series that mixed original, character-driven storytelling with large-scale spectacle and nightlife elements. I also created TO LIVE AND DI(N)E IN L.A., an interactive, true-crime inspired supper club where guests were whisked away on a journey through the city’s sordid history via a four-course meal, cocktail pairings, and theatrical performances… all while seated next to the ghosts of infamous L.A. killers and their victims.

Most recently, I created MONSTER PARTY, an open world, immersive play-within-a-party set against the backdrop of McCarthyism and the Lavender Scare.

In addition to my own personal projects, I’ve also worked as an experience creator and producer for a number of organizations and brands, including Cirque du Soleil, LA Opera, Apothic Wine, El Silencio Mezcal, Diplomatico Rum, and more.

A native Angeleno, I live in East Hollywood with my two cats, Jezebel and Aleister Meowley. I’m a Gemini sun, Libra moon, and Scorpio rising (it is what it is). I love haunted houses, tiki bars, movie theaters, and a well themed cocktail party.
