Step Inside The Madness Of MONSTER PARTY In LA!
from The Roundtable with Robert Bannon · host Broadway Podcast Network
We’re diving into one of the most buzzed-about immersive experiences in Los Angeles right now—Monster Party! Created by Matt Dorado, this surreal, campy, and politically charged theatrical event drops guests right into the middle of a 1950s cocktail party where nothing—and no one—is quite what it seems. Set against the backdrop of McCarthyism and the Lavender Scare, the experience blends gossip, mystery, and audience participation into a living, breathing story where YOU are part of the action. Running in Los Angeles at Rita House, Monster Party isn’t just a show—it’s a full-on experience. Guests mingle, uncover secrets, and interact with a cast of eccentric characters inside a sprawling, immersive world where conversations become clues and every moment matters. Dorado, known for shaping LA’s immersive nightlife scene, leans into bold storytelling, camp, and chaos to explore how fear, power, and society can turn ordinary people into “monsters.” It’s theatrical, it’s provocative, and it’s exactly the kind of experience we LOVE to spotlight here.
