Mit Echten Reden (1): Das Ellenbogen-Prinzip

Playing times
Duration
90 Min.
Venue

“You have to learn to start to use your elbows!” This post-Wende mantra clearly marked the end of the German Democratic Republic for Tanja Krone, who was thirteen years old at the time. Nearly 30 years later, she asks her parents, sisters, friends from school and teachers what they understand from the "elbow principle" and brings the answers on stage. Something new gently emerges between true, false and borrowed memories.

Event notes

For safety reasons, a maximum of two wheelchair users are allowed in the auditorium.
