Tanja Krone:
Das Ellenbogen-Prinzip
Das Ellenbogen-Prinzip
"You must start using your elbows now!"
For Tanja Krone, who was 13 years old at the time, this Post-Wende mantra was a significant signal for the end of the GDR. Almost 30 years later she asked parents, siblings, school friends and teachers what was meant by the elbow principle and brought the answers to the stage: three women from two generations, strange quotes and the soundtrack of a past that still has to be invented. Between genuine, falsified and borrowed memories of many, something new is carefully created.

TANJA KRONE is a director, performer and musician whose projects deal with art as a space of possibility and participation of various protagonists. Her performances in the past have ranged from the founding of the world's largest women's rock band to the invention of utopian states in Africa and the creation of a modern youth Salvation Army in Berlin. Since summer 2017 she has been touring European cities with The European House of Gambling, an international group of performers and do-gooders, to find out if a gambling community is also a just one.
