Juliette Burton is to launch the first four episodes of her new audio comedy series Sweet Dreams in association with Acast. Created by Juliette and written by Juliette and Liam Beirne, this beautifully crafted four part series stars Matthew Crosby, Sooz Kempner, Rob Frimston, Angus Dunican and Juliette as anxious heroine, Sylvia.

The series also features special appearances from John Henry Falle, Lindsay Sharman and Laurence Owen. It was recorded remotely from their home studios during the height of lockdown and was edited by Frankie Lowe Video.

Sylvia is an anxious soul. So anxious in fact that she suffers anxiety about her anxiety. She has just moved into a new flat and is living with boyfriend Ryan for the first time. So how on earth is she ever going to relax enough to actually fall asleep? However, as she starts to read her new book, The Big Book of Anxiety, she falls instantly asleep. In her dreams, Jim, her subconscious takes her on what could be an adventure of self-discovery or a may just turn out to be a ridiculous series of events. 

Can she possibly learn anything before she wakes up?
