A large proportion of the European population is made up of elderly people, and yet we still find it difficult to talk about aging and death. Robert, Ishai and Pippo are living in a care home, looked after by their charming nurse Bonita. Incorporating life-size puppets, dance and mime, they look back on their lives as they approach their ends and consider the things they did and the things they didn't do. Our Theatre's wordless play asks what makes a life well lived and reframes death and aging as universal experiences not to be feared.
