Related to or involving dramaturgy, the art and craft of constructing and analyzing theatrical works.
From dramaturge + -ic suffix (pertaining to). The -ic ending comes from Latin -icus and Greek -ikos, adding the meaning 'of or pertaining to.'
This is a word mostly theater people use, but it describes something profound: the specific rules and tricks playwrights follow (like how a character enters, what music plays, what the lighting reveals) that aren't about the story itself but somehow make us feel everything deeper.
