Had a great time talking with Rockford's own Darren Marlar about his new project, a sitcom in development called, "Rock And a Hard Place".  Already, Stephen Baldwin is on board to play the lead on the show.

Now the heavy lifting begins. That includes drumming up both financial support and perhaps even community support for the show. To that end, a Kickstarter page has been launched and a party/open audition is set for Monday:

Our OFFICIAL KICKSTARTER LAUNCH PARTY [is] Monday December 16th in Rockford, IL 7:00pm to 9:30pm at the Radisson Hotel and Conference Center with Rock And A Hard Place Stars Stephen Baldwin (Biodome, The Usual Suspects), four time Grammy Award winner John Schlitt (lead singer, Petra), Lindee Link, Berkeley Clayborne, Series Creator Darren Marlar, Director/Producer Keith Romine, and Producer Berdella Endress!

You can find out more at the Kickstarter page (which is a crowd-funding web site, if you're nor familiar with the idea).  Out interview with Darren is below:

Wishing him the best of luck on the project.  I'm sure we'll get some updates along the way...
