Libby Harrison is the founder of Add Lib. She has worked as a role player in multiple environments since 2004. Libby spent over ten years at Griffith University where she ran their Simulated Patient program, recruiting, training and managing 200 actors. Libby coordinated Griffith’s landmark 10 credit point course – 2002MED Introduction to Human Patient Simulation. Her conference presentations include ‘How to design and implement a successful Human Patient Simulation Program’ at both 2015 Newcastle AMEA and 2016 Perth ANZAHPE.

Add Lib was created after identifying a gap in the market. Acting agencies were contacted by businesses looking for Role Players. At Add Lib they understand that Role Playing, or acting for education, is a completely different form of acting to entertaining or selling a product. Clients would want to utilise Role Players but just didn’t know where to find them, so they brought in friends and family to assist. Add Lib takes all the hassle out of booking professional Role Players and Simulated Patients.

Add Lib is branching out with the Anywhere Festival into the theatrical world to bring Class of ’89 to a car park near you!
