Narrating is what you do when you're giving a spoken commentary on the action taking place during a drama. It's a useful technique when you want to inform the audience of what is happening.

Why use narrating? What can it add to a drama?

Narrating can make a drama more understandable or stylised in a number of ways:

an actor can speak the commentary over the action happening in the drama.
a character can speak out what s/he thinks the audience needs to know about the characters or the situation of which s/he is a part - this is called self-narrating.
an actor can just tell the audience what they need to know in between scenes.
a character can read or write a diary or letter that informs the audience what is important for them to know about what is happening or going to happen.
