Nonpoint, Cusack bring shows to the Sherman Theater

The Sherman announces upcoming shows, with tickets on sale now.

The Even More… Outta Control Tour delivers a massive night of hard rock and metal to downtown Stroudsburg, on Tuesday, Aug. 4.

Since their inception, Nonpoint has carved out a unique place in the world of rock music, blending raw energy, thoughtful lyricism, and genre-defying soundscapes. Over the years, the band has continually evolved, navigating the changing tides of the music industry with resilience and innovation. Their dynamic performances and uncompromising vision have earned them a dedicated global following and a reputation as one of the most electrifying acts in modern metal.

With a career spanning nearly three decades, Nonpoint has long been a force to be reckoned with in the nu-metal/rap-rock genre.

Known for legendary live performances and explosive tracks such as “Bullet with a Name,” “What a Day,” “Ruthless,” and more, the band has consistently captivated audiences with infectious riffs, compelling lyrics, and an uncompromising raw energy. Their discography and stagecraft have made them staples at rock radio and fixtures on festival lineups, earning them a dedicated international following.

In recent years, Nonpoint’s relentless drive has carried them into new heights of creative autonomy and global recognition. The success of their independent label, 361 Degrees Records, has solidified their place in metal history while empowering them to forge their own path.

Their Heartless EP, featuring the thunderous single “A Million Watts,” reaffirms the band’s signature sound — inviting, visceral, and unforgettable. The momentum continued with the 2024 release of “Underdog,” a bold anthem that sparked fresh waves of energy through the rock landscape.

Spend an unforgettable evening celebrating one of the most beloved music films of all time when High Fidelity: An Intimate Screening and Evening with John Cusack comes to the Sherman Theater on Oct. 16.

With an impressive body of work spanning the course of three decades, John Cusack has evolved into one of Hollywood’s most accomplished and respected actors of his generation, garnering both critical acclaim as well as prestigious accolades for his dramatic and comedic roles.

Most recently, Cusack appeared in the WWII spy film “Fog of War,” playing Robert, a conflicted intelligence officer navigating moral ambiguity during the war; “Detective Chinatown 1900,” a historical Chinese blockbuster directed by Chen Sicheng and Dai Mo; and Chinese espionage thriller “Decoded,” which focused on wartime code-breaking and intelligence.

In 2020, Cusack was seen in Prime Video’s SciFi series, “Utopia,” in which he stars as Dr. Kevin Christie, a charismatic, media-savvy, and brilliant biotech mind who wants to change the world through science. “Utopia” is based on Dennis Kelly’s British series of the same name and highly acclaimed author Gillian Flynn served as executive producer and showrunner.

Cusack first gained the attention of audiences by starring in a number of 1980s film classics such as “The Sure Thing,” “Say Anything” and “Sixteen Candles.”

Following these roles, Cusack successfully shed his teen-heartthrob image by demonstrating his ability to expand his film repertoire by starring in a wide range of dramas, thrillers and comedies including “The Grifters,” “Eight Men Out,” “Being John Malkovich,” “High Fidelity” and “Grosse Pointe Blank.”

In recent years, Cusack starred in Bill Pohland’s “Love and Mercy,” in which he played iconic Beach Boys songwriter and musician Brian Wilson. Cusack starred opposite Paul Dano, Elizabeth Banks and Paul Giamatti as Wilson in the later years of his life. Cusack also starred in David Cronenberg’s, “Maps to the Stars” alongside Julianne Moore, Robert Pattinson and Mia Wasikowska, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. The satirical drama is an analysis of the entertainment industry’s relationship with Western civilization as a whole.

Cusack also appeared in a supporting role in Spike Lee’s “Chi-Raq,” alongside Teyonah Parris, Nick Cannon and Samuel L. Jackson, Lee Daniels’ drama, “The Paperboy,” opposite Nicole Kidman, Zac Efron and Matthew McConaughey and in James McTeigue’s independent thriller “The Raven,” where he portrayed the infamous author, Edgar Allan Poe.

Additionally, in 2009 he starred in Roland Emmerich’s apocalyptic thriller, “2012.” Released by Sony Pictures, the international blockbuster went on to gross more than $766 million worldwide.

In 2001, Cusack was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical for his role in the feature version of Nick Hornby’s English novel, “High Fidelity,” for Touchstone Pictures. In addition to starring in the film, Cusack also co-produced and co-wrote the script with Steve Pink and D.V. DeVincentis. The film also stars Jack Black, Lisa Bonet, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Joan Cusack.

In 1999, Cusack starred in the dark comedy “Being John Malkovich” for USA Films. Cusack’s performance earned him an Independent Spirit Award nomination in the category of Best Actor.

In April 2012, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce presented Cusack with a Hollywood Walk of Fame star, honoring his long, groundbreaking career in film.
