Much Ado About Hector
Hector shakes things up at the office, starting with Mary. Lives in the line between legitimate workplace instruction and inappropriate behaviour - the grey zone where most workplace bullying actually happens.
Corporate Theatre Library
Sixteen plays. One purpose.
A library of Corporate Theatre plays written by The Experience Lab for Australian workplaces.
Every play in this library is tailored before it's performed. Scenarios, character names, terminology and the conversations they spark are rewritten for your sector and your room. The list below is a starting point - Jacob will recommend the right play and the right tailoring on the scoping call.
Workplace Bullying
Workplace Bullying
Plays that bring workplace bullying into the room as it actually unfolds - the repeated slight, the ambiguous instruction, the team member who's always the butt of the joke.
Same Old Slugger
Our primary Bullying play for outdoor, high-vis and trade workforces. Rupert leads a diverse project team and Slugger is the old-school one who keeps crossing lines. Especially resonant where banter and bullying get blurred.
The Life of Riley
Bullying surfaces alongside harassment and Upstander moments in Riley's day as a newly-appointed manager. Pick bullying as one of the focus topics when commissioning the play.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual Harassment
Plays scripted for the Positive Duty era - Sex Discrimination Act compliant scenarios that hold up under the standard for reasonable and proportionate measures.
Larrikin or Larry Can't
Larry is the self-appointed office "clown"; Stephanie doesn't find his crude jokes funny. Lives in the line between humour and harassment, and the question of where workplaces draw it.
The Life of Riley
Sexual harassment is one of the threads Riley navigates as a new manager. Often paired with bullying and Upstander focus topics in a single session.
Diversity, Inclusion & Equity
Diversity, Inclusion & Equity
Plays that move past virtue-signalling. Built for the 2026 D&I backlash moment - disarming, evidence-grounded, designed to land with sceptical participants.
Animal Firm: A Tale of Belonging
Gary the GM hires Joey, a very different creature, to boost diversity. The team struggles to adapt. Fun, irreverent characters surface unconscious bias and exclusion in a way that disarms defensiveness.
Same Same But Different
Aneela, a recent immigrant, joins an all-white team. Well-meaning Harold, Zak and Rain let assumptions get in the way. A study in the gap between intent and impact that most participants recognise in themselves.
Kendall on the Ropes
Kendall prioritises the bottom line over the people side when a DEI overhaul hits his business. Includes Deloitte's six signature traits of inclusive leadership.
It's a Woman's Woman's World
A world where women are in charge and female middle managers explore how to empower men. Flips the script on gendered power dynamics in a way pure D&I content rarely can. Co-developed with CEOs for Gender Equity.
Upstander & Bystander
Upstander & Bystander
Plays built around the four Upstander behaviours - Call it, Disrupt it, Report it, Support.
Be an Upstander
The play written around the four Upstander behaviours in action. Used as the anchor for our Upstander Training program and as a complementary module alongside Harassment, Bullying and Respectful Workplace work.
The Life of Riley
Riley's day is full of Upstander moments - moments where a colleague has to decide whether to call it, disrupt it, report it or support. Good fit when Upstander needs to land alongside other respect-at-work themes.
Change & Leadership
Change & Leadership
Plays for leadership cohorts navigating change, culture and the conversations that determine whether the team comes with them.
The Change Play
Four team members react very differently to an office relocation. Useful for manager-of-change conversations and the skill of navigating resistance without escalation.
The Apprentice Play
Dan, Mitch, Xavier and Peta: four very different new starters. Explores organisational values through their eyes - especially powerful for apprentice, graduate and new-starter cohorts.
All That Glitters
The Wombat car company team chases sales at the expense of company values. Communication, courage, integrity and respect tested in real time.
Kendall on the Ropes
Kendall is the leader who prioritises the bottom line over the people side when a DEI overhaul hits his business. Strong fit for leadership cohorts that need a play about leading inclusively - not just about D&I.
Family Violence (primary prevention)
Family Violence (primary prevention)
Co-developed with DART Group, family violence specialists.
Behind Closed Doors
Skye and Judd - a couple who appear perfect until the signs of family violence emerge behind closed doors. Co-developed with DART Group. Addresses workplace responsibilities under primary prevention frameworks - what colleagues notice, what managers can do, what a workplace's duty of care looks like.
Multi-topic, customisable
Multi-topic, customisable
Plays that flex across topics - useful for whole-of-workforce programs where multiple themes need to land in a single session.
The Life of Riley
Riley, a newly-appointed manager, navigates a day of wide-ranging team issues. Bullying, sexual harassment, courageous conversations and Upstander moments all surface - clients pick the focus topics for their workforce.
