The best example of dramatic irony in the play is in Act 5 when Romeo sees Juliet and thinks that she is dead because of the potion she took earlier that day to make her appear dead. Romeo sees this and then stabs himself and when Juliet wakes up and sees that Romeo has killed himself she then commits suicide also.
