PSYCHODRAMATIC EXPLORATION OF DOCTOR-PATIENT RELATIONS IN THE PERMANENT THEATER

Abstract

The session starts with a brief presentation on the part of the Director. He further states that he will carry on direction in Spanish, but dramatization will be performed in French.
In order to avoid a longer warming-up, because of language difficulties, he will present short demonstrations. It is from these demonstrations that the protagonist emerges. The protagonist introduces himself, saying that he is a physician. He discloses moral problems in the practice of his profession. He adds that the area in which he works is very poor, with much alcoholism and delinquency. Lately, in a quite incidental manner, he has had to assist in three similar cases: attempts to commit suicide by barbiturates, with the peculiarity that the three women patients were women married to alcoholics.
