Boirie was the son of a chief clerk of the stewardship of Paris, which at the time of the Revolution, spent the remainder of his fortune to the acquisition of the Théâtre des Jeunes-Artistes. His son, whose education was neglected but was gifted with a brilliant imagination, felt the vocation for drama, and at age 20 had his first play performed. Unable to write these tragedies he conceived well and combined with a perfect understanding of the scene, he could not do without employees. Among the seventeen authors who were kind enough to work with him, several spirited men achieved many successes in the world of theater.

After his father died, Boirie became owner of the Théâtre des jeunes Artistes, but was stripped of his ownership by the imperial decree that abolished many theaters. He then was the dramaturge for four years of the théâtre de l’Impératrice, a position he lost at the time of the First Restoration, which did not prevent him from being a zealous royalist.

In 1822, he became dramaturge of the théâtre de la Porte-Saint-Martin, but Jean-Toussaint Merle, who had called him to this place, left the management of the theater. Attacked with terrible diseases as a result from the abuse of pleasures, Boirie lived since then in retirement before dying, after great suffering, in a nursing home located in the quartier Saint-Marcel of Paris.
