Ο Χοιρίλος υπήρξε δραματικός ποιητής. Υπάρχουν μαρτυρίες ότι έγραψε 160 τραγωδίες και κέρδισε δεκατρείς φορές στα Μεγάλα Διονύσια. Διασώζεται μόνο ένας τίτλος τραγωδίας του: η «Αλόπη».

Choerilus (Greek: Χοιρίλος) was an Athenian tragic poet, who exhibited plays as early as 524 BC.

He was born in 546 BC. He died around 460 BC (about 86 years old).

Choerilus started writing tragedies when he was 22 years old. He staged 160 plays and won the prize 13 times. His works are all lost; only Pausanias mentions a play by him entitled Alope (a mythological personage who was the subject of dramas by Euripides and Carcinus). He lived in Athens for most of his life.
