Jess Watson

MA Performance Design


Biography

Jess loves technically challenging and dynamic designs, which she explores in her own creative practice as a performance designer. Before studying at BOVTS, Jess worked as a Drama Assistant, designing and building sets for Reigate Grammar School and achieved a first-class BSc (Hons) in Product Design from Loughborough University.

Her credits include the set design for A Very Expensive Poison (Circomedia) and the set and costume design for Hymns (Wardrobe Theatre).

The culture at BOVTS is encouraging, respectful, welcoming and empowering; the environment and buildings are beautiful and I found Bristol to be one of the most wonderful cities in which to spend summer! Lindy Yeates, Foundation Course Student
