James Turner Designer James studied English and Drama at Manchester University and graduated in 2009 from the Motley Theatre Design Course. He was awarded Best Set Design at the 2013 Off-West End Awards for Mercury Fur. Great stacks of books dominate James Turner's set. They bulge from the shelves and the piles heaped above the door frame makes you fear for whomever dares to enter.
