Fun Facts

1. Juliet plays the role of Barlow in High Strung Free Dance

“She is optimistic, bright-eyed, and can be a little naïve at times.”

-Juliet Doherty

2. Like her character Barlow, Juliet comes from a classical dance background.

“In the movie, my mom (played by Jane Seymour) is my dance teacher. This is a commonality I share with my character, because my real-life mom was my dance teacher growing up. I don’t want to give too much away, but the romantic plot you’ll see in the film is something I’ve never experienced in real life.”

-Juliet Doherty

3. She is so grateful for her fans.

“Every message I receive on social media and each person I connect with in real life is very special to me. This film was made with young dancers and dreamers in mind. I’m grateful if our cast can share a bit of inspiration with this story.”

-Juliet Doherty

4. Growing up, she had a crush on Klaus from Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events.

“I’ve always liked the studious ones!”

-Juliet Doherty

5. Her most-used emojis are the cowboy smiley ???? and the letter with a heart on it ????

6. She says her biggest guilty pleasure is sleeping in.

7. The most nerve-racking things she’s ever done are dance solo at Lincoln Center, or ride a motorcycle.

8. She works hard to balance her work as an actress with her life as a professional dancer.

“I think the key is staying well-rounded in your training, and willing to push yourself out of your comfort zone when opportunities come along.”

-Juliet Doherty
