Dramaturgy is the stage of analogy. It is how we in society perform the expected roles in society. It assumption about social interaction is that social life is a stage that individuals are a part of. We all play apart which are one’s status. Status is what you are. With status comes a role that we play. A role is what you do while you are in a particular status or something that we do that is expected of us. This is called role performance. An example of this is when I am in class I am performing the role of a student. I take notes, look at the teacher, and answer questions. Sometimes there are cues which can be verbal or non-verbal which direct us into what is expected of us next and so forth.
