Directed by Livy Scanlon, the reading High Risk Ward is presented by The Hanover Theatre and Conservatory for the Performing Arts next week on June 10 and June 11, 2026 in New York City. Presentations are by invite only.

Set in 1963, High Risk Ward follows three expectant mothers whose pregnancies are deemed “high risk” and two overworked nurses in the maternity wing of a newly integrated Louisiana hospital. As the nation reels from John F. Kennedy’s assassination and the hospital’s orderlies unionize and strike, these five very different women are thrown into an intimate pressure cooker. Facing fear, uncertainty, and a world in rapid transition, they lean on one another’s humor, heart, and resilience, forming bonds and sharing moments that will change their lives forever.
