She mainly focused on her stage career for the rest of the '80s, appearing with the Broadway cast of Our Town and receiving several Drama Desk nominations.In 1992, Conroy became friends with famed playwright Arthur Miller.

She was nominated for a Tony Award in 1998 for her work on the Broadway hit Ride Down Mt. Morgan.
