A Therapy Session with Myself, a full-length, semi-autobiographical drama by Anthony J. Piccione about the inner struggles of living with mental illness and Asperger's syndrome, premieres January 2019 at the Hudson Guild Theatre, 441 W 26th Street, as part of the New York Theatre Festival's 2019 NYWinterfest.

The romantic comedy/drama, THIN SLICING, will have its second New York City production at the Manhattan Repertory Theatre Best of 2018 Play Showcase. The limited run will play December 14 and 15 in midtown Manhattan.

A Spanish American War historical court room drama, The Court Martial of Almirante (Admiral) Montojo, was successfully performed off-off-Broadway last December 8, 2018 at the Manhattan Repertory Theatre on 17-19 West 45th Street. 'I was only hoping for a respectable attendance but thankfully both the matinee and evening shows were fully filled,' said Filipino playwright Dennis Posadas.

The beginning draft of the play The Court Martial of Almirante Montojo wrote itself deep within Filipino playwright Dennis Posadas's psyche one day as he was having a beer near Manila Bay several years ago. Since then his play, a historical courtroom drama about Spanish Contraalmirante Patricio Montojo's post Battle of Manila Bay trial in Madrid in 1899 after his loss to Admiral George Dewey at Manila Bay has been edited and rewritten so many times. 'I first pitched the story to a newly opened science museum in Manila several years ago but we did not come to an agreement. So the story slept for a while in my hard drive, Posadas said.
