When two college recruiters at a prestigious university need to fill one last spot to keep their jobs, thirteen eccentric, dimwitted, and slightly insane high school seniors are eager to come in for an interview. What seems like a simple task turns into a nightmare when the applicants turn out to be a reality TV star, a practicing vampire, an amateur magician, and others that are much worse. Each applicant’s interview hilariously illustrates what NOT to do at a college interview.

The Honeoye Falls-Lima Drama Club presents, 13 Ways to Screw Up Your College Interview by Ian McWethy premiering November 12th & 13th, at 7:30 p.m., in the High School Auditorium. Tickets are $5 and are available at the door.
