I always saw it not as that we make the world a stage by our actions (presenting ourselves as we would like to be or whatever, something intentional) but that the audience is constructing a narrative from the cues of the actors. Meaning that it behooves one to recognize that we are behind the proscenium arch whenever we are in the presence of others whether we like it or not. It always made me feel a little bit justified for acting erratically.
