We take a slight geographic detour this outing as a brand-new Springfield<\/strong> movie project joins the ranks! Predestined Arts & Entertainment<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s feature debut JUMP IN<\/strong> will be unveiled tonight, Saturday, March 2<\/strong>, at the Hoogland Center for the Arts, 420 S. Sixth St., Springfield<\/strong>, after more than a year in production under the careful watch of director, writer, and executive producer Kimberly D. Conner<\/strong>. Following her topical dramatic short THIS LIFE AIN\u2019T PRETTY<\/strong> from two years ago, this \u201cdrama with a hint of comedy\u201d follows an ambitious single mother named Troy Alexander (Sheree Bynum<\/strong>) who returns to her hometown in the hopes of putting a broken marriage in the past as well as studying to pass the bar. Her friends match up Troy with middle school math teacher Malik Bond (Dingani Beza<\/strong>) despite her inner convictions that she can fend for herself and son Jordan (Mesiyah Oduro-Kwarten<\/strong>) without a love interest. Soon after, Troy\u2019s mettle is tested greatly when her ex-husband, family rifts, and health concerns threaten to derail her new life plan. Michael Higgenbottom, Kevin Craig West, Mel Roberson, Karen Malina White, Thea Camara<\/strong>, and THIS LIFE<\/strong> lead Danielle Ward<\/strong> fill out the primary cast of JUMP IN<\/strong>.
