Beauty and the Beast is in theaters now. It re-tells the story of the 1991 animated film and keeps the original music, but adds a few new songs. Emma Watson stars as Belle and Dan Stevens as the Beast, and the rest of the cast is full of Oscar nominees and winners. It’s rated PG and runs just longer than an hour-and-a-half. You can live the enchantment at the Alamo Drafthouse and every other Lubbock theater.
The Belko Experiment is really a twisted social experiment, played on 80 Americans in a corporate office in Bogota. An unknown voice keeps giving them orders, and it turns into a big game of kill or be killed. It’s rates R and runs just shy of an hour-and-a-half. Get into the game at Premiere Cinema.
If you’ve never seen Greater Tuna, or if you want to see it again, you can next weekend. Co-creator Jaston Williams directs this time for the new tour of the show. It’s the story of the third smallest town in Texas. The three actors portray all 21 characters with lightning-quick reflexes and costume changes. There will only be three performances; one Friday night, one Saturday night and a Saturday Matinee at the Civic Center. Tickets are from $30 to $50 through Select-A-Seat.
That’s a look at what’s happening in the Hub City with Joe Sherwood.
