Description

As seen on BBC and ITV. 'Huge talent' ***** (Mirror). 'A force to be reckoned with. Hilarious' ***** (EdFestMag.com). 'Intelligent, emotional, liberating' ***** (VoiceMag.uk).

A touching, honest, vulnerable show that happens to also have some of the best jokes I heard all Fringe long! Go see her if you get the chance, Juliet is wonderful. You could feel positivity radiating around the room at the end of the show. A real highlight.

Fantastic show from Juliette Burton who is a very warm, funny & engaging comedian!
My Hope was dialled up to 11 during this show!
As tonight (16th) is the last show of Hopepunk during this Fringe, you'd better book up quick!

My Wife And I have been watching Juliette Burton since 2011, She is one of our favourite comedians. I think we like her so much because she is so honest on stage, she shares part of herself with the audience, One of the things she talks about this year is the Creative of the shower, and its true. How often do you come out of a shower and have an idea that you need to share with someone. Please go and see Juliette, you will be glad you have, she is very funny and lights up a room with here infectious charm. Please go see this show, but you don’t have much longer to see it, Its only onto the 16th - But there is Hope…...
She has a second show this year - Its called Going Rouge… and is on at the Counting house from the 19th. And once more its in our plan to see.
P.S. - I really hate putting reviews up - its not in my nature to do this.

Juliette was a joy to watch with infectious energy levels and a friendliness that draws you in.
She not only portrayed a relatable snapshot of the ups and downs that have happened in her life but helped us increase our own hope despite the lows we have collectively faced. This show is a ray of hopeful sunshine rather than simply a sticking plaster of inauthentic positivity.

This tour de force from Juliette, deserves a full house. A show full of hope, for Juliette, and the audience. As in previous shows Juliette weaves her personal experience into an amusing narrative about a wider issue. This is an amazing hour of comedy despite covering serious issues.
Running to the 16th August. Don't miss your chance to see this inspirational performance.

A lovely performance. Juliette is an engaging, effervescent host whose joy is infectious, and while she wisely does not gloss over the potentially darker aspects of a positive outlook on life, you will still leave with several springs in your step and some more light in your heart.

My third time seeing Juliette, normally with big audiences, she deserves to be sold out as she has been in the past. We enjoyed this show very much, Juliette is funny, friendly, welcoming, engaging, the material is real life, it is a difficult subject, but Juliette brings it to life so beautifully.
If you have ever had struggled with everyday life, even if you haven’t you must go see Juliette, she is a star.

In a day of six fabulous shows - I know, Fringe miracle! - Juliette's was one of my absolute favourites. She had a tiny preview audience (she's sold out many years before and the show was amazing!! - WHERE WAS EVERYONE???), but she absolutely shone through the whole show.
She was warm and friendly and absolutely hilarious, and I'd see her again in a heartbeat. I plan on starting up an immediate harassment campaign to get everyone I know to go and see her. She deserves massive audiences, and anyone who doesn't see her is missing out.
Book a ticket right this second!
(P.S. I know this kind of glowing review probably sounds like I'm her lifelong friend, but I promise I'd never even heard of Juliette before booking this as a random pick (sorry Juliette!) - she just made me an instant fan!) GO SEE THIS SHOW!
