Precarious: A Transformative Musical Tale

Precarious is a community collage play produced by the Mission Overdose Community Action Team, including Moms Stop The Harm and Safe Mission Society. Created by community members, family members, and peers - those with lived/living experience - the play unveils the stories of the unregulated drug poisoning emergency. 


Told with warmth, humour, and authenticity, Precarious acknowledges the risky times in which we all live and engages and uplifts the audience with a vision for transformation, and you can sing along.


Through songs and scenes the play weaves together some of the history of prohibition, explores the facts and fiction within the unfolding human tragedy of the Fentanyl crisis, and celebrates the heroism of peers and families on the front lines.

Be prepared to stop an overdose before you are faced with it. You can reverse an overdose if you know what to do and you act in time. Whether you use drugs, love someone who does, or just care about the people in your community, it’s important to be prepared if you encounter someone who is overdosing.

"You lose the person who struggles with substance abuse. But we all struggle with addiction – gambling, food, pornography, alcohol. As a society we should be there for each other, and look at ourselves before we

judge other people."
