Poetics of the Theatre of the Oppressed in mental health.The Theater of the Oppressed (TO) is an artistic-political approach and its intersection with the field of mental health is the subject of this article.We present an intervention research anchored in Qualitative Epistemology, which proposed a collective construction of knowledge from the analysis of the field diary of facilitation of a Group of Theater of the Oppressed in a Center of Psychosocial Attention.From that moment, four categories were listed: understandings about TO in Mental Health; theoretical-practical proposition of TO; work in mental health; the experience with the Workshop of Collective Conversation.It was evidenced that the TO problematizes asymmetrical and subjugating relations, putting in question subjects like disease, treatment and cure.Finally, the importance of collective dialogue about mental health care practices that are under construction in Brazil is reinforced, thus strengthening care and stimulating the protagonism of workers and users.
