She has been involved in amateur theatre for many years, beginning with the Oldham Theatre Workshop and the Saddleworth Players, where she was able to gain valuable experience working with professional actors and playwrights.

After gaining a degree from Norwich University of the Arts, Melissa has worked in the book trade, publishing and education. She rediscovered live theatre ten years ago and has acted, worked backstage and manned the tech box ever since.
