Answer:

The dramatic irony in act 5, scene 3 of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet arises from what the audience knows—which is a considerable amount of information—and the characters don't know about each other and about the situation in which they find themselves. Compared to the audience, the characters in the scene know almost nothing, which very much increases the irony in the scene and holds the audience in a heightened state of suspense and anticipation for the entire scene.
