Scott Cramton – American Immersion Theater, Founder & CEO: “Immersive theatre has the ability to connect with people” (StageLync Podcast Ep.8)

Scott Cramton’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. Born with a cleft palate, Scott underwent seven surgeries by fourth grade and overcame speech challenges through dedicated therapy. His love for the arts became his driving force, leading to the creation of American Immersion Theater, the premiere provider of immersive entertainment experiences. 

With a passion for immersive and interactive entertainment, Scott has revolutionized the theater experience, creating engaging, participatory performances that captivate audiences. American Immersion Theater, the umbrella company for several niche theater businesses including The Murder Myster Co., has grown to offer a wide range of productions, from murder mystery dinners to elaborate interactive events. Scott’s vision and creativity have positioned him as a leading immersive theater figure, consistently pushing traditional performance art’s boundaries. 

AIT has 25 locations across the country and employs over 2000 performers who are part of nearly 8000 shows a year. With scripts that have been performed over 50,000 times, Scott is one of the most produced immersive or even mystery playwrights in the world. From public and private parties to working with some of the largest brands like Lucas Films, Apple, Netflix and Disney, he also recently entered a strategic partnership and received an investment from prolific horror producer Jason Blum.
