Homeward Bound play production

Nearly 100 actors and performers have volunteered their time and talents to create a community play to benefit Homeward Bound of Asheville. The extravaganza, called "Always Expect Miracles," is the first production of Homeward Bound’s newly-formed community performance project, Just Home in the Mountains (http://www.justhome.org/)

The production will be performed on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, plus Saturday matinees, from Feb. 11 until March 6, at the First Congregational United Church of Christ, 20 Oak Street in Asheville. Tickets are on sale now at the Pack Place Education, Arts, and Science Center (828-257-4500), with 100 percent of the proceeds going to benefit Homeward Bound of Asheville.

"Always Expect Miracles," written by award-winning playwright Jules Corriere, is a mixture of stories gathered from residents of WNC and artfully woven into a compelling chronicle.

The mission of Homeward Bound is to end the cycle of homelessness.
