Grandpa Heimer has loved the ocean since childhood. Together with grandchild Charlie, they transform everyday objects into grand maritime adventures. But as Heimer's dementia progresses, his mind drifts further out to sea, and the 'storms' grow wilder. Can Charlie find a way to steer them safely through the waves? Inspired by a true story, Roarrr Theatre blends puppetry, object theatre, and original music into a heart-warming family voyage that gently explores memory, love, and the circle of life.
