Role playing is when you pretend as if you were a certain person. It is similar to a skit, except that it is unscripted. You might think of it as the "reality show" version of a skit. The role players should each be assigned a role, and then the facilitator will set the scene. Once this is done, the role players take over and act as they think the person they are playing would act. The facilitator should probably also adopt a role so that the group can be kept on track without taking them out of the experience.
