BWW Reviews: Black Lab Theatre's ASSISTANCE is Witty and Relateable

For the most part, a large chunk of Generation Y is out of college and in the workforce. According to some, we are the young hopefuls that were born between the early 1980s through the early 1990s. Others push the birth dates back as far as the 2000s. Either way, our voice is gaining in strength, and we're making our mark. Sadly, our mark is one of frustration. A recent study by Office Angels shows that 27 percent of 25-34 year olds are unhappy in their current job, and according to Moster.com 55 percent of Generation Y employees see their current employer as a mere stopping off point in their career path. Luckily, Leslye Headland, author of BACHELORETTE (which was adapted for film in 2012 and starred Kirsten Dunst, Lizzy Caplan, Isla Fisher, and Rebel Wilson) once worked as Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant and understands this plight. She has crafted a deft comedy that addresses workplace dissatisfaction with her 2008 play ASSISTANCE.
