Sammanfattning
This article is based on the project «Theatre gives coping» and the theater group «Iteatret», a collaboration with people who had been hospitalized at a psychiatric center. The aim of the project was to develop meaningful activities and a way to express experiences and emotions. The experience was recreated in artistic expressions; texts and songs in a theater performance, made by the participants. After the project completion, four of the participants were interviewed. The findings show that the theater activities led to positive changes, both personal and social. Some related this to a therapeutic process.
