BWW Reviews: ASSISTED LIVING at ACT Lives Only From Assistance

A few days ago I posted a review for another comedy in town where I commented on the fact that they just don't write farces like they used to. And last night the current production at ACT, "Assisted Living" only served to support that statement.
