The Story
Royally is an original comedy series written by Ben Diserens that follows Mel (Rachel B. Joyce), a millennial burnout who strategically starts a princess party company in order to gain access to the wallets, liquor shelves, and medicine cabinets of New York City's most elite parents. Along with her wide-eyed sidekick, Damien (PJ Adzima), she robs unsuspecting mothers blind from Park Slope to Park Avenue, all without ever taking off her wig or tiara. It's like Enchanted meets Get Rich or Die Tryin'.
Last summer, we shot all six episodes of our first season! We were able to assemble an incredibly dedicated crew, helmed by our fearless leader, director Don Downie. Many people donated their time, their equipment, and their apartments/other locations to our shoot. We are so, so grateful.
We also put together an incredible cast of actors including Tina Benko (Broadway's The Crucible, The Cherry Orchard), David Fierro (The Knick, Red Oaks), Christiane Seidel (Boardwalk Empire), Sara Kapner (Off-Bway's Bare), Sebastian Beacon (Taking Woodstock), Thea McCartan (Orange Is The New Black), Lauren Ireland (5Stages), and more!
We've made this Seed&Spark page because we're currently in post-production for our series, and we want to give all of you the opportunity to get involved! If you click on "the wishlist" tab, you'll be able to see a breakdown of our post-production costs. That money will help cover the fees of our editors, sound mixing and color correction, a composer and music rights, graphic design and animation, and of course, all the marketing for the show so that lots of people will watch it once it's made.
We think Royally has a promising future ahead of it, and finishing these six episodes is a crucial first step. We're grateful for any contribution you're able to make. And if you're not able to give financially right now, clicking "follow" on the right helps us as well. Thank you so much for watching our video and sharing your interest in our project!
