FALSE. A narrator is usually a person who narrates the story, otherwise known as the main leading character in the story. While he might have certain perceptions about the other characters around him, he doesn't necessarily tell the readers what the other characters are like. The narrator in a play is usually from a second person point of view, speaking in "you" form, but this one doesn't allow you any window into what the other characters are like; if anything, it usually just describes the setting or tells you who is entering the scene.
