LIKE DREAMERS DO 🎵
IMAGINE a world in 1965 Liverpool where dreams are born. Envision the humble beginnings of the most successful band in history that changed music forever. Sound familiar? But wait--they're not 4 young lads. They're girls?! 😲
Rebellious and immensely talented teenager “Jennifer Lloyd” (the female version of John Lennon) has that dream. She wants to start her own all-girl rock band, but there are obstacles that threaten to derail her ambitious pursuit. In a male-dominated industry, girl groups like this were unheard of then. Strict parental units completely forbid the idea. There was no access to instruments and no money. Trouble at school didn't help either. What will Jennifer do? Luckily, she meets an incredibly charming student named “Pauline McKinnen” (Paul McCartney's female edition), a musical prodigy who helps Jennifer move towards the goal. Can they make the dream a reality?
ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE 🎵 - A message from the Director
Hi, Beatles fans and new friends! As the creator, writer, director, and songwriter of 'The Ladybugz', I want to sincerely thank you for being supportive and excited about our highly-anticipated production. Your likes, follows, subscriptions, and messages letting me know how much you’re looking forward to this special 8-part series is deeply appreciated. Determined to never give up, I have been working diligently to get this original PG-13/TVMA comedy-drama filmed and in front of your eyes since 2022. Visit ladybugz65.com to see what we’ve been up to so far. 'The Ladybugz’ is my passion, written with love in every line and in every song I wrote for the series. I believe in it 100%! I've been a Beatles Superfan for many years, and this is my way of paying homage to them. Creating this series is truly a divine call from above that has resonated in my spirit for a long time. I want whatever God wants! And I would love for you to come along on our magical mystery adventure with us!
DID YOU KNOW top-notch Hollywood executives wanted to buy and distribute this compelling series?! That’s confirmation of its highly marketable appeal and potential for great success. However, there are some things that are not for sale. I just couldn't walk away from my creation and my cast. They mean a lot to me.
COME TOGETHER! 🎵
We're ready to rock! We have a stellar cast of rising stars, fun music, a professional crew, and a character-rich pilot episode we want to film for you. Check out the photos and bios of our cast and crew. Watch The Ladybugz music video. THIS is the year we go further!

Perks
DONATION # 1: Walk down Abby's Road of Giving! When you donate $100.00 by June 15th, you will receive a token of our appreciation--a special limited edition Abby’s Road Films mug! Get this first thank you gift by the time the pilot episode is released, so you can sit back and enjoy the show as you sip your favorite beverage!
DONATION # 2: Keep going! Your belief in us can move mountains. When you give another $100.00 by July 15th, your name will be listed in the Special Thanks credits at the end of the pilot episode! End credits immortalize the people who contributed to the making of a production for life. Won’t it be great to see your name there?
DONATION # 3: Friendly competition time! There are 15 supporting characters in the pilot episode that need a first or last name. If you are one of the FIRST 15 PARTNERS to contribute $100.00 by August 15th, one of these characters will be NAMED AFTER YOU! Let's choose a character together! Your name (or some variation of it that you agree on) will be attached to a character at the discretion of the director. Don’t worry—all other donors who reach this tier after the first 15 people are selected will have the chance for a character in episodes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 to be named after you. There are PLENTY of characters just waiting for your important moniker to live on in Ladybugz history!
DONATION # 4: You’re rolling now! This $100.00 donation by September 15th puts you on an exclusive guest list for a virtual "dinner" with a group of cast members on Zoom! After you watch and enjoy the pilot episode, you are bound to FALL IN LOVE with this stellar team of actors and memorable characters. Come sit down, bring a meal and a drink (in your Abby's Road Films cup), and have a laugh with us. Let us tell you directly how much we appreciate you and your amazing help. Cheers!
DONATION # 5: Hold onto your hats, folks. Your last $100.00 contribution by October 15th gives you the chance to APPEAR in the PILOT EPISODE! How exciting would that be, getting cast in a highly visible “walk-on” role (non-speaking) in The Ladybugz? Donate early to secure a spot in the show! Can't travel to Richmond VA? That's ok! You will not be left out. You’ll receive a private “backstage pass” featuring behind-the-scenes autographed photos and video! Reaching this giving tier confirms that you truly are a Ladybugz hero and we appreciate you more than words can say. 💖
