In the context of dramatic text, tone refers to the overall attitude of the text. It encompasses the emotional quality and stance of the dialogue and narrative, reflecting the feelings and moods that the characters or the author convey. Tone helps set the atmosphere of the play and can influence how the audience perceives the characters and the unfolding events. It is distinct from the direct meaning of words (denotation) and the associations they invoke (connotation), as well as the specific conveyance of plot.
