Start your story

  • Real Immersed Productions (RiP) creates live immersive performances that build community and challenge cultural norms through play. Our work asks what it means to be authentically human in an age shaped by AI and social media.

    Each show invites guests into distinct worlds—colorful characters, eras, and communities they can step into or simply observe. With our “play optional” approach, audiences choose their own level of participation.

    Blending performance with multimedia storytelling, our mockumentary-style formats encourage guests to document their experience, becoming part of the story itself.

    As we expand our work, RiP continues to explore reality TV and its impact on American culture—with our Vanderhump Rules project currently in development.

  • Step 1: Tell Us What You’re Doing.

    Party? Corporate thing? Surprise wedding? Weird themed dinner with costumes encouraged? Whatever it is, tell us the theme, the space, and how wild you want it to get. We’ve got shows ready to go or we can make one just for you.

    Step 2: Lock It In.

    We’ll send over a quick quote and you’ll place a 50% deposit to reserve your date. That way, we can start prepping and you can start bragging to your friends that a show is coming your way.

    Step 3: You Party. We Perform.

    Your guests step into a living story — full of drama, comedy, mystery, and scandal. You get the credit for throwing the most unforgettable night of the year.

  • We’ve got two fully unhinged immersive shows locked, loaded, and ready to crash your next party or event.

    A Nasty Way to Die

    It’s 1985 and the head of 20th Century Ferret is getting roasted.
    Whoever kills on stage wins a primetime TV slot — until someone actually does.
    Part roast, part murder mystery, all chaos.

    Who Killed Hoochie-Mama?

    Welcome to the Roaring ‘20s and the Hooch-Off — a booze-soaked competition to crown the best moonshiner in town.
    One part gin, one part gossip, one part murder.

    In Development: Vanderhump Rules

    Our next immersive mockumentary diving into America’s favorite pastime: being messy on camera.

    Custom Experiences

    Got a theme, venue, or vibe in mind? We’ll make it work.
    Every show we do is tailored to your event — so even the “ready-made” ones feel one-of-a-kind.

  • Throwing a party? Hosting an event? In the mood for some drama?

    We make booking easy so you can focus on the important stuff — snacks, outfits, vibes.
