THE HERALDEntertainment: Weekend

From Local Sources

JASPER — Will Hoge will rock the Jim and Pat Thyen Performance Stage in the historic Astra The-atre on Saturday, May 2.

Hoge performs a mix of coun-try, Southern rock and Americana songs. The Grammy nominated artist has an impressive résumé that he will putting on display for all those in attendance.

The music will kick off at 7:30 p.m. with Darrin Bradbury warming up the stage. Bradbury has a unique ability to blend sat-ire into his folk songs in an ef-fort that can result in some hu-morous lyrics.

Tickets are on sale now at www.TheNextAct.org. Reserved seating tickets on the main floor and bal-cony are $15 with a $30 VIP option. The VIP ticket includes preferred parking in the Matrix parking lot, a $5 concession voucher and a 30 minute pre-show meet-and-greet with the artist.

Hoge has recorded multiple al-bums, his latest being “My Amer-ican Dream,” and each provides an authentic portrayal of real life. He proves to be a truly empa-thetic artist as he puts himself in someone else’s shoes when writ-ing. Furthermore, Hoge places great importance on the freedom to stand up for his convictions and put them into his music when the time calls for it. He co-wrote

“Even if it Breaks Your Heart” which was recorded by the Eli Young Band. This song reached No. 1 on the country charts and received Grammy, CMA and Academy of Country Music nom-inations for best country song of the year.

Music legends have also real-ized Hoge’s abilities, as he has toured with the likes of ZZ Top, Shinedown, Dierks Bentley, Ja-son Isbell, John Mellencamp and many others. In addition, Hoge has played at the Grand Ole Opry multiple times. Country legend Vince Gill played guitar during Hoge first appearance and sang background vocals for a couple of songs.

In addition to sharing the evening Will Hoge, make plans to attend other 2020 Next Act, Inc. shows, including screen-ings of “The Secret Life of Pets” on Friday, March 13, and “Alice in Wonderland” on Saturday, June 6, along with the comedic act of seven-time Emmy award winner Ed Asner on Saturday, June 20. Addition-al information is available at www.TheNextAct.org.

The historic Astra Theatre, newly renovated with 357 seats, has main level and balcony seat-ing with a concessions stand of-fering snacks, local craft and domestic beer, and wine that are available for purchase.

All times are Eastern unless otherwise noted.

Current cinemaCurrently playingCall of the Wild (Showplace Jasper 8) Nobody has been better suited to the role of prospector John Thornton than Harrison Ford. But the dogs and wolves he encounters in this film are computer-generated, and there’s something unsettling and artificial about their overly expressive eyes. (Adventure, PG, 1hr. 45 min.)

The Invisible Man (Showplace Jasper 8) This version of the classic horror story shifts the focus from the largely unseen sociopath to the target of his torment (Elisabeth Moss), and the result is a fresh, original, heart-stopping and bloody good tale. (Horror, R, 1 hr. 22 min.)

Jumanji: The Next Level (Showplace Jasper 8) Like 2017’s “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,” this rousing, funny, warm-hearted, old-fashioned adventure movie puts high school students into video game avatars that look like Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart and others. There’s more than enough charm to overcome the occasional overlong action sequence. (Action adventure, PG-13, 2 hrs. 3 min. minutes)

Onward (Showplace Jasper 8) Of the 22 films from Pixar since “Toy Story,” I would rank “Onward” ... 22nd. The story of two brothers dragging around the bottom half of their dead dad, who has rematerialized from the waist down, fluctuates between the uninspired and the just plain weird. It’s too basic to keep parents and older children entertained, and too trippy for the little ones. (Animated adventure, PG, 1 hr. 42 min.)

On DVDA Hidden Life In 1940s Austria, a farmer is jailed for refusing to sign a loyalty oath to Hitler, as his wife and children suffer without him. This is a Terrence Malick film, so you can count on feeling dazzled by spectacular shots of heaven on Earth, and impatient at the sheer

overpowering deliberateness of it all. (Historical drama, PG-13, 3 hrs., 2019)

Richard Jewell ½ The latest economically filmed, well-crafted gem from Clint Eastwood recalls the cop wannabe who was proven innocent after being named as the prime suspect in the 1996 Olympics bombing in Atlanta. Paul Walter Hauser delivers screen-commanding work as the title character.
