The Heart Ward - Poetry in Performance

This project, The Heart Ward, written by award-winning writer Max Hafler charts a stay in his local hospital with heart failure, explores advocacy and dealing with the hospital system. In doing so, the poems contrast his experience now, with his birth and early childhood, with the condition spina bifida occulta.
Check out the workshop photos below and max himself reading a short poem when he was actually in the hospital.
Currently there is a fund raising campaign on
