A situation in a play in which the audience knows more than the characters.
Scottie Conn
An example of dramatic irony is in William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet" where the audience knows that Juliet is not actually dead, but Romeo believes she is and ultimately takes his own life. This creates tension and emotional impact as the audience witnesses the tragic outcome that could have been prevented with full knowledge.
