Three Norns sit at the foot of the World Tree. There they spin, knot and cut the thread of life, deciding on who lives or dies. In a present where end-of-life has become the greatest social taboo, the battle to halt physical decline and the ageing process becomes a life's work.

Three Norns sit at the foot of the World Tree. There they spin, knot and cut the thread of life, deciding on who lives or dies. In a present where end-of-life has become the greatest social taboo, the battle to halt physical decline and the ageing process becomes a life's work. In their musical theatre piece “ENDLICH” (FINALLY), composer Asia Ahmetjanova and director Franziska Angerer dare to confront the inevitable. Working with a group of elderly people, they look at their own mortality and ageing with all its attributions. The result is a shared ritual that lies between mythology and performance and faces up to the final consequence of life.
