DRAMATIC IRONY This type of irony is often used in plays, movies, and TV programs. The audience or reader knows something that a character does not know.

EXAMPLES OF DRAMATIC IRONY As we are watching a movie, we know that the murderer is hiding inside the house. As your friend is telling you how upset she is that no one is doing anything special for her birthday, you know that there is going to be a surprise party for her on Saturday night.
