Kara is floundering in Story Brewing 401, where final projects are brewed—literally—in cauldrons. Out of ideas, they cobble together a clichéd fairy tale starring a pompous prince, a self-saving princess, and a villain modelled after their crush, Eva. Then a suspicious vial of ink falls in. And so does Kara. Trapped inside their own half-finished story, Kara must survive a world gone off-script—one warped by corrupted ink and haunted by discarded drafts. Don’t Fall In is a queer, spooky, and emotionally charged new musical that flips fantasy tropes on their heads and asks: what happens when the story writes back?

Sensory description
This is a fast-paced musical packed with big vocals, bold costumes, and a spooky vibe. There’s plenty of singing, music, and visual storytelling, so the experience leans heavily on both sound and sight. As a result, it may be difficult to fully access for audience members who are blind/vision impaired or Deaf/hard of hearing. The show also includes haze effects, creepy sounds, and eerie moments that may be overwhelming for folks with sensory sensitivities or certain access needs. While it’s a blast for many, we encourage audiences to consider these elements when deciding if it’s the right fit.
