Pitch Text:

Bitter Pill - The Songs of Billy Butler as Conceptualized by The Mad Men of Oopsy Daisy Inc. is a heartwarming, gut wrenching, mind-blowing, macabre, crotch-stirring 24 song cycle in the vain of “Jacques Brel Is Alive And Well…” with a nod to Tim Burton and Edward Gorey. Artists Brandon James and Ben Hart (The Mad Men of Oopsy Daisy Inc.) will produce each song as a spectacle brought to life with an ensemble of performers and musicians. In true Mad Men fashion, there will be puppets, aerial dancing, cirque, burlesque, mechanicals, marionettes, comedy, tragedy, razzle-dazzle, life and death, and the songs of Billy Butler! Billy Butler and The Mad Men of Oopsy Daisy Inc. come together in true artistic collaboration. We believe in upcycling, recycling, and artcycling. Our mission is to use what we have at our disposal to move audiences. This is the second collaboration between Billy and The Mad Men. The first being Missing: Wynter (which was another successful Kickstarter campaign), together they went on to win multiple regional awards such as, Extraordinary Achievement for a Musical and Best Actor in a Musical. A Bitter Pill is already creating excitement for what is sure to be a surreal and magical experience. Your support will create a brand spanking new show! And there are many great rewards for your pledge!
