Dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows more than some of the characters in the play. Look for examples of dramatic irony in Act IV. Note two or three examples and explain what makes each ironic.

The examples of Dramatic Irony in Act IV are: First, when Paris informs Friar that he and Juliet will be married by Thursday.

Second, when Juliet's family rejoices over the matrimonial arrangements while Juliet takes the potion, and the last dramatic irony appears when the Capulets believe that Juliet is dead, whilst she is just pretending to be dead by consuming potion.

Explanation:

Dramatic irony, as expressed above, is an ironical situation in a play or text when audience is more informed about the situation than the characters in the play. Through this technique, the author hints or imparts knowledge to his/her audience about a situation more than the characters in the play knows.

In Act IV of the play 'Romeo and Juliet', the readers note three examples of dramatic irony.

First appears in Act IV, Scene I, when Paris informs Friar Laurence that he and Juliet will be married by Thursday. This event creates dramatic irony because the audience is aware that this won't happen because Juliet and Friar has different plans for the wedding day–that Juliet won't marry Paris.

Second dramatic irony in Act IV appears in Scene III, when the Capulets rejoices over the matrimonial arrangements between Juliet and Paris whilst Juliet has consumed the potion to carry out her plan.

Third takes place in Scene V, when the Capulets mourns Juliet's death whereas, the audience knows the Juliet is under the spell of potion and is not dead but just playing dead, so that she can meet her love, Romeo.

All these events makes theme dramatic irony because the audience and readers were well aware of the situation, all the while, than the characters in the play.
