Carney penned the popular 2004 play The Home Team, previously seen at the Network, the major resident Equity theatre in Ann Arbor. She is one of a handful of Wolverine state writers who is regularly produced there. Kitty Dubin and Jeff Daniels are also part of that small club.

"In this comic-drama, Kim blends her trademark humor with exquisite pathos in the story of a woman moving her mother into an assisted living facility," according to Performance Network. "A tough-as-nails spitfire determined not to go quietly, she causes a ruckus, finds a jitterbugging partner and teaches her daughter a valuable lesson before the play is through. Full of music, dancing and love — and based on a true story."

Jim Posante directs a cast that features Carmen Decker (Performance Network debut) as Maxine, Kelly Pino as Diane, Loren Bass as Greg, Will Young as Joe, Steven O'Brien as Sailor, Nora Bonner (Performance Network debut) as Girl, and Cassaundra Freeman (Performance Network debut) as Benita.
