Kyle is an award-winning theatre and television director creating unique and inspiring productions for both children and adults. She holds a BA degree in contemporary theatre from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and a postgraduate degree in play therapy from Notre Dame Centre/University of Glasgow. Kyle is excited by creative risk-taking and adventure and seeks to explore content which challenges form, structure, and style in ways which are unusual or unexpected. It is this fusion of interest that has led to the creation of her original animated series in development for CBeebies (BBC) and Kyle is also directing a new television drama series, Molly and Mack. As a creative and artistic director within children’s education over the last 14 years, she has also led theatre festivals around the world, most recently at Institut Le Rosey (Rolle, Switzerland) and Marymount International School Rome (Italy).
