Inés Ruiz is a bilingual Spanish actor and musician based in London. She's a versatile performer and a multidisciplinary artist with a solid musical background. Before moving to the UK, Inés trained as a professional musician, completing a 4-year Bachelor's degree in Music Performance and was part of an English theatre company where she developed as a creative individual. She moved to the UK in 2022 to train at Rose Bruford College in their Actor-Musicianship MA programme.

In almost 20 years of musical training, she has strived to become a versatile multi-instrumentalist and explored different genres, music making and sound. These skills, combined with her experience and training in theatre, make her a highly skilled musical director, sound designer and composer, roles that she combines with her work on stage.

She is interested in using theatre and music to share different perspectives of the world. Imagination, empathy and curiosity are at the forefront of all her projects.

Inés said: “For an actor-musician, the Watermill is a special place that symbolises craft, creativity, immersion and collaboration. I believe this programme will help me to keep nurturing my own practice. I am truly excited about the opportunity to work and learn from other artists, and I am looking forward to bringing my own creative energy to such an artistic and imaginative environment.”
