Estrellas en la oscuridad

Abstract

The fusion of two artistic languages such as plastic art and body expression makes up a very rich symbiosis for everyone who lives this experience. Its main objective is that students can express their creativity and freedom to reveal their inner feelings, which contributes to their personal development. An experiment carried out at the special education school Arboleda in Teruel shows that the confluence of these disciplines enhances emotional and psychological development in the students, affecting both their learning process and their behaviour and self-development. Eight years ago, teachers at the school began to produce noir plays in order to offer the students new and stimulating experiences. This work has evolved and now the students themselves carry out all the tasks needed to put on the plays, with all the advantages that this affords.
