Dramatic scene (7)
I believe the answer is:
tableau
'dramatic scene' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for tableau that I've seen before include "Depiction of a scene by people in costume" , "Scene, representation" , "Motionless figures representing a story" , "Motionless figures representing a scene" , "'Frozen' theatrical scene" .)
