Creative Producer

From 2004 - 2015 I worked as a Creative Producer and Music Journalist across a range of platforms and brands: From Clash Magazine to my own independent production company Blackboard Productions, to freelancing for brands such as Red Bull Music, Resident Advisor, Converse, Bowers & Wilkins and many more. In 2015 I started my work in immersive theatre working as the Head of Music at Secret Cinema until I became a Creative Director in 2018.

Matthew J Bennett - Senior Creative Director

I’m a Senior Creative Director and Experience Designer. I thrive when transposing much loved stories or brand new tales from idea into living and breathing reality. Whether reimagining iconic worlds for Disney, Netflix and Universal or shaping original tales from scratch, I specialise in transforming stories into powerful, lived experiences.


At Secret Cinema, I wrangled a team of eleven brilliant creatives, building vast playgrounds of music, performance and design. Since 2024 as a freelancer, I get to collaborate widely - from psychedelic food magicians Bompas & Parr to disinformation satirists Sage & Jester, glossy world-builders at Condé Nast, and immersive sports pioneers Rematch Live to name just a few.



Ten years in, and my drive has only grown - to craft places where audiences don’t just watch a story, they live and play inside it.
