When the audience knows something that a character on stage doesn't know, it is called dramatic irony.
People speak in soliloquies so that the audience can tell what's going on in the character's head. In a book the author can just tell you, in a movie, the director can show you, but a playwright has to somehow communicate internal thought processes.
It's called an "aside". It is a line that the playwright directs the actor to deliver to the audience, which is called "breaking the fourth wall". Neil Simon's comedy "Fools" is full of asides to the audience.
This term refers to the impression that the audience receives of the speaker's character.
