Arranged marriages. Stolen names. One minute at a time.
Short vertical period dramas you watch right in your browser: dukes, heiresses, masked balls and secrets that should have stayed buried. Every chapter ends at the moment you most need to know more.
How it works
Questions
Is Ballroom Drama free?
Yes, the first chapters of every story are free, with no sign-up. To see the rest you unlock a story once — or every story at once.
Do I need to download an app?
No. Everything plays right here in your phone’s browser, like a video feed. Swipe up for the next chapter.
Is this a subscription?
No. It is a single payment, and the chapters stay open for you. Nothing renews and nothing is charged later.
How do I pay?
With Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal or a card, in a secure checkout that opens on top of the story.
I changed phones. How do I get my stories back?
Open any locked chapter and tap “Already paid? Restore”, then enter the email and order number from your receipt.
