Acting enthusiasts are welcome to audition for the upcoming Ƶ Theatre student production of “Drugs Are Bad” by Jonathan Rand. Auditions are scheduled for 5-6:30 p.m. October 9 and 10 in the Ƶ Fine Arts Auditorium in the Fine Arts Building. The play requires two male actors and one female.

Ƶ freshman Megan Rimmel said the main character is Brad, who comes home from school one day to find his parents waiting for him, deeply concerned. They have found a secret that Brad stashed away in his underwear drawer: an algebra book, instead of following his parents’ strict insistence on sex, drugs, and rock and roll. What unfolds is a parody of all those insufferable after school specials that made us who we are today.
