Melissa Boyle is a producer based in Manchester, UK.

She works across film, TV and theatre, driven by a passion for projects that challenge norms, reimagine traditions, and tell bold, emotionally grounded stories. Her practice is rooted in collaboration and care, whether producing on set, coordinating behind the scenes, or creating spaces for artists to connect and thrive.

Melissa champions female, queer and working-class-led narratives. She is the co-founder of Alora’s Productions, an independent film company dedicated to ambitious storytelling and opportunities for emerging and diverse creatives, and HellCat Creative Collective, a platform fostering safer, joyful spaces for women, trans, and non-binary artists to collaborate and showcase their work.

She is currently developing new projects on screen, on stage, and within the wider creative community.

Her practice is guided by a few key questions:

Who gets to tell stories?

How do we hold space for each other?

And how can we build more inclusive, imaginative creative futures?
