La scena terapeutica del Teatro

Abstract

Therapeutic Theatre Scene Abstract In the article we propose, we point out the characteristics of theatre as treat-ment tool to “contaminate professionalism” and promote health, starting from the experience of Bologna’s company Arte e Salute [Art and Health] which, in the very lively panorama of theatre companies promoting health and cultural quality, stands out for its historical and methodological characteristics. Three privileged observation angles are highlighted by the dissertation: an intra-psychic, an inter-subjective and an external viewpoint, meaning with this latter the sense of social and cultural penetration these experiences carry out in the community through a contamination of lived experiences and metaphor of overcoming the stigma (“public” metaphoric -and not- which looks at actors, always more “outside” health services and thus “inside” their community). A special relevance is given to the exploration of the factor group – company to promote change. Keywords:
