An aside is a comment made by an actor which is for the benefit of the audience alone, and is not meant to be heard by the other characters on stage.
In Romeo and Juliet, Act 2 Scene 2, Romeo, standing unnoticed in Juliet's garden, is evesdropping on her as she talks to herself on her balcony. He says, "Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?" The question is directed at the audience; the actress playing Juliet must not show that she has heard it (although she obviously has, since Romeo must say it loud enough for the audience to hear). That line is an aside.
In some Shakespeare plays, a character continuously makes asides at the stupid comments made by another. Cymbeline has some fine examples of this.
