Dive In.
Submersive Productions is a collaborative artworks company that creates original, site-specific immersive works where artists and audiences engage together at the intersection of histories, mythologies and the immediate experience.
Based in Baltimore, we devise works that make the audience essential to the journey of the narrative.
We work with diverse, predominantly female teams of artists and performers to make worlds that engage the senses and unfold stories, both familiar and forgotten.

Best Theatrical Experience”
Baltimore City Paper
I was blown away by the quality of the work.”
J. Wynn Rousuck, WYPR
Museums spend years acquiring the sort of artifacts Submersive Productions assembled for this show. It’s one thing to stage a show in a real museum – quite another to flesh out an empty one.”
Baltimore Post-Examiner
The time, effort, and attention to detail exhibited in the entire production is truly astonishing.
