scriptless

No written dialogue

Scriptless means without a script—unscripted.

A scriptless performance relies on improvisation rather than predetermined dialogue: The actors went scriptless for the final scene.

In computing, scriptless refers to approaches that avoid programming scripts: scriptless test automation, scriptless development tools.
