ABSTRACT
This group activity is ideal for adolescents because they have an intrinsic understanding of Shakespeare’s idea that “All the world’s a stage. . .” as proposed by (Elkind, 1967) because of their egocentric perception of the world that is magnified through the lens of an imag-
inary audience. The premise of the exercise is easy for adolescents to comprehend and they readily examine the roles they play in their lives. This author has also used this exercise in substance abuse and anger management groups.
