Dramatist's is the possessive form of dramatist, a person who writes plays for theatrical performance.
The apostrophe-s indicates ownership or association: the dramatist's latest work, a dramatist's craft requires understanding both dialogue and stagecraft.
It can also form the contraction "dramatist is" in informal contexts, though this usage is far less common.
