Further Information- Notice how in the first Video, the actor with the walking stick (Macheath) is the only only who keeps moving when he says the line 'I mean how often is it that I get married?' this is because he has several other wives, but not everyone on stage knows this. This creates Dramatic Irony as the audience now know something most of the characters do not.
In the second video the actor sat (George) explains how he'd rather be eating a sandwich than in this meeting, he dreams of the sandwich and the other actors add emphasis by acting as an ensemble to play out his imagination. The other character (Frank) is angry at George ignoring him and shows the audience how this makes him feel. Humour is then created when the scene comes back to life and the ensemble are still on the table.
