A group of millennial artists bring to life "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.

Performance schedule is Tuesday, January 15 @ 9pm, Wednesday, January 16 @ 6:15pm and Saturday, January 19 @ 3:30pm. Tickets can be purchased at the door or by visiting www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3798842.

"Therapy" tells the story of Alex Grayson, a young college student and aspiring writer who - during the summer before his senior year - receives a mysterious visit from "himself," a human incarnation of his inner consciousness. He is now forced to reflect on some of the darkest and most painful memories of his adolescence.
