About
Hi! I’m Matt Dorado, an immersive experience creator and producer. I create work that lives at the intersection of theatre, nightlife, and dining.
Prior to the pandemic, you may have known me as the creator of DRUNKEN DEVIL, a theatrical nightlife series that mixed original, character-driven storytelling with large-scale parties.
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. The show sold out each of its seatings over its two-year run.
Most recently, I created MONSTER PARTY, an open world, immersive play-within-a-party set against the backdrop of McCarthyism and the Lavender Scare. After a Spring run praised by audiences and critics alike, I’m hoping to take the show to the East Coast in 2027.
In addition to my theatrical 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.
I’m also a fiscally sponsored artist, working with the NY-based nonprofit THE FIELD, and amcurrently accepting support through tax-deductible donations. You can learn more about and support my artistic practice by donating here.
I live in East Hollywood with my two cats, Jezebel and Aleister Meowley. They’re the best.
