Joseph, an upstanding member of "Don't be Afraid to be Afraid", relates a childhood story about being left alone in the cabin of the "Blue Star", a ship on the Red Sea. Actor, puppet, scenery and objects form a bright and exciting children's play that deals with fear in a light-hearted and clever manner.
