Burton’s becoming a regular subject for a certain comedy blogger!
The lovely John Fleming posted a blog about How To Win An Increasingly Prestigious Malcolm Hardee Cunning Stunt Award and mentions Juliette as a possible candidate for her When I Grow Up stunts! Exciting times! Read all about it here…
A HUGE thank you to everyone who pledged their contributions to help ‘When I Grow Up’ get to the Edinburgh Fringe. This was to raise funds to cover costs of materials, staff, venue costs – Juliette is not taking a penny herself. We managed to raise a grand total of £740 – a massive help towards to total cost of the show. Thank you!
Juliette has a potential cunning stunt according to John Fleming’s blog! She and her music video and Buckingham Palace escapade gets mentioned alongside none other than Richard Herring! Read all about it here!

Of Burton’s new show ‘When I Grow Up‘ John said: “A happy, life-enhancing show….jolly and enthusiastic and life-celebrating… People will go out with a smile on their face…I did.”
Thank you, John. From the bottom of Burton’s strange little heart and from every corner of her wandering mind, thank you.

The lovely website Funny Women have written a great little article recommending When I Grow Up very highly!
They describe Juliette’s journey to realise her varied childhood ambitions in When I Grow Up, sweetly concluding “Luckily for audiences everywhere, she ended up as a writer, actress and one half of ace comedy duo Mace and Burton!”
They say “If you’ve ever fancied a trip down memory lane, this is definitely not one to be missed!”
