DESTINATION MOON | BY JOSEPH REED HAYES

Two people in two little rooms. A young woman, a bed, an unseen voice, music in the night, hope out of darkness. When we meet Truly in her room at the end of the hall, she is on her way to recovery, having spent years in and out of hospitals combating serious illness since she was a child. She’ll be going home soon, with every likelihood of a “normal” life. And home might as well be the moon. Truly deals with her fears by writing bad songs, reading odd old books and communing with Doc Miller, an unseen radio voice in the night.

Award-winning playwright Joseph Reed Hayes has had dozens of productions and readings of his works in Florida, New York, California, and the United Kingdom; he’s also a performance artist and jazz producer, whose Jazz on Edge series encourages the performance of original music. Born in Manhattan, Hayes moved to Asheville in 2023, after a nearly three-decade career as a freelance writer and food critic in Florida. He has been a three-time associate artist-in-residence at the Atlantic Center for the Arts and has been the recipient of state and local arts grants and fellowships. “A Slow Ride” and “Destination Moon” are his first Asheville productions.
