Currently in its second full season, the Talking It Out Virtual Arts Festival is dedicated to raising mental health awareness, bringing online theatrical performances to audiences worldwide since 2020. Founded by Producing Artistic Director Anthony J. Piccione, the first Talking It Out performance was presented live at the Dramatists Guild Foundation's Music Hall on March 10th, 2019. Originally intended to be a one-time event of minimalistic staged reading of short plays, the event has since been revived as an ongoing festival of plays - along with additional arts-related programing - presented online via Zoom.
