There are various ways to refer to "play without words" such as silent play, pantomime, physical theatre, miming, nonverbal communication, or gesture-based theatre. These terms indicate a mode of artistic expression that relies on body language, facial expressions, and movement to convey a story or a concept, without using speech. It requires the performers to be skilled in physical control and to have a deep understanding of the meaning behind every movement. Silent play can be both comedic or dramatic and can be performed on stage, in movies, or in street performances. Regardless of the term used, play without words allows for a rich and unique experience that transcends language barriers.
