Having trained at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London, Juliet Aubrey started in theater before working steadily in TV and film. She’s talked about her love of theater, telling the Bolton News:
“In theatre you get the chance to keep refining, honing, digging, sometimes moving backwards, at other times making leaps forwards, but always changing, never the same. Theatre is a living, breathing organism. You also get to rehearse properly. The opposite is usually the case in film.”
So I’ve included her most recent historical costume role on the stage, in addition to her fascinating series of frock flicks!

Which of Juliet Aubrey’s historical costume roles is your favorite?
Just a note, the picture from The Last Vampyre isn’t Juliet Aubrey. I just saw the episode and was confused at first because they looked so similar, but this actress is Yolanda Vazquezper IMDB. Juliet Aubrey played her maid, Dolores.
