The part of the play that describes what is happening on the stage is called

narration

A play is a drama that is acted on stage by characters who are trying to pass across a message.

During the play, there could be a short pause, where a narrator's voice is heard, telling the audience/spectators what is happening on the stage.

Sometimes, the play goes on while the narrator does this, most times, they are silent, and it is usually done when the play is about to come to an end.
