People with deficiency are stigmatized and excluded from the social conviviality and of the ordinary activities. To transform that reality, the General Assembly of the UN (1990) emphasized the model of inclusive society, based on the principle that everyone has the same value and that society should make an effort to assist each citizen's different needs. According to this view, the Group of Theater for Special Actors (G.T.P.A.Ê.) was created, with the main objective of making possible the development of the personal and social abilities of people with mental deficiency, and of informing society about these individual's real potential and limitations. The intervention is developed during the rehearsals, night strolls and group spectacles. It's possible to observe the participants creative expressions, as well as the development of their autonomy and self-esteem. It's also possible to observe an impact of the spectacles on the public, what can decrease prejudice and facilitate the inclusion process.

Palabras clave : Mental deficiency; Social skills; Theatre; Social inclusion.
