Abstract

This paper discusses the escape of Dramaturgical theory in the practice of social interaction in real life and in online life. The lack of Dramaturgy practice appears in one of the WhatsApp group accounts at a university in Surabaya. The boundary between 'front stage' and 'back stage' has been blurred and the differences are not clear. This is marked by the activity of sending language and images of sexual harassment on the WhatsApp group. Pictures and chat about sex should be in the private room instead spread on the WhatsApp group. Meanwhile, the real life of each member when meeting actually behaves politely and avoids conversations around sexuality. This kind of behavior reflects the blurred identity of one's personality between real life and virtual life.
