'All the World's a Stage' is a line from William Shakespeare's poem 'As You Like It'.
Also referred to as the 'Seven Ages of Man', it tells about the seven stages in a man's life that he goes through, from birth until death.
From an innocent infant, he develops into a schoolboy, then a lover, soldier, then on to someone who sees justice, then to the stage of an aged man who shifts and shuffles along and finally ending in ripe old age, which is childishness once again - without teeth, taste, sight or other senses of adulthood.

The poem's theme is that man is the ultimate loser in the game of life. He says “all the world's a stage and “all the men and women merely its players”. Every player plays seven roles during his life. The first stage is that of an infant when he is helpless in his mother's arms.
The poem is written in free-verse which means no rhyme ,rhyming scheme and the pattern is unstructured . 3. All the World's a stage 1st paragraph And all the men and women merely players , they have their exits and their entrances And one man in his time plays many parts , His acts being seven ages.
