Life Can Be Hard to Swallow

Join us for some performance-addled comedy as RUPUR (aka, Rebecca Upur), a college freshman with a taste for alcohol and larceny, decides to sell Adderall to her fellow students in order to make ends meet. Her best friend, DRAKE, is an aspiring performance artist with dreams of becoming the next Andy Warhol. Together, they will navigate the rocky waters of freshman year…while frequently setting their boat on fire.

Influenced by “Spaced,” “30 Rock,” and “Absolutely Fabulous” USE AS DIRECTED will give you the boost you need to finish that 20-page paper on hydraulic technology. We promise.
