Trying to remember back to my drama days...(was a long time ago)...our play scripts contained the dialogue and actions that were supposed to occur on stage. Without the actions I guess you would just be reading a short story or a book right? A list of cast members is usually recognized on a playbill, not the script I think.

Yes @cr1mesc3ne is right. A script contains the dialogue and stage directions.
