Faced with the double whammy of turning 50 and her daughter leaving for Uni, Juliette jumped out of an aeroplane and wrote a cabaret show – though not on the same day. After premiering the show at Edinburgh Fringe in 2022 where they were Pick of the Fringe, this virtuosic duo - now regulars at London’s Crazy Coqs - are back at the Fringe this August 2024. Expect new comic/satirical songs from election woes to Prosecco and asking the all important question: “Does it matter if I wear big pants?”, genre busting mashups and the entire History of Western Music in just 3 minutes (through the medium of Abba). Acclaimed record producers, the duo have worked with everyone from Pete Townshend to the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and from Sir Cliff Richard to Sir Bryn Terfel. Films include Dustin Hoffman’s Quartet, My Policeman starring Harry Styles and Operation Mincemeat starring Colin Firth. Juliette has sung with the UK’s leading orchestras, released a solo album with Sony BMG, and performed with Sir Simon Rattle and Meatloaf. James has conducted at English National Opera, Glyndebourne and has even wielded his baton on I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue...
