What is the Fourth Wall? A conceptual wall through which we watch a film, TV show, or play. Fictional characters are unaware that they are not real. The do not feel the presence of an audience.

Characters break the 4th Wall by… Acknowledging it. Directly addressing the author or audience, speaking to the camera or shoing that they are aware of the “show.”

If Tom is a character in the play and the narrator, how will that impact the information we get from him? Explain.
