GH Preview: Nurses’ Ball Set To Begin May 22

GH’s annual Nurses’ Ball episodes will kick off on May 22, once again hosted by Lynn Herring’s Lucy Coe. “We are thrilled to bring back the Nurses’ Ball this year and delighted to be working with Burt’s Bees as our corporate sponsor,” said ABC’s Vicki Dummer, head of Current Series Programming, in a statement. “The Nurses’ Ball brings awareness to AIDS research while giving our multi-talented cast a chance to showcase their vocal talents.” Said Executive Producer Frank Valentini, “This will be GH’s 13th Nurses’ Ball, and each year our wonderful viewers have come to expect plenty of music, dance, glamour and of course an abundance of drama. This year will be extra special, as we’ll have several tribute performances honoring the work of contemporary artists who have recently passed away, including David Bowie. There a lot of amazing performances and special appearances in the works. You won’t want to miss it!” EXTRA host Mario Lopez will also be on hand this year, co-hosting the red carpet festivities alongside Michelle Stafford’s Nina.
