Wally the Watermelon makes his debut as the "Masked Watermelon Singer" today! Listen along and try to guess who Wally really is. Tune in the NOT The-Watermelon-Festival-Concert CONCERT this Saturday (August 15) beginning at 7:00 p.m. to see Wally un-masked.
Local legends, “South Down Main,” will headline a virtual concert experience in the first-ever (and hopefully only) “NOT The-Watermelon-Festival-Concert” Concert on Saturday, August 15, 2020 live from Hempstead Hall’s theater. The popular singing competition, “Watermelon Idol,” will also be live-streamed prior to the concert from the Hempstead Hall Amphitheater.
For the last month, the Hempstead Hall team has partnered with SWARK.today to produce the virtual concert event "HOPE FOR ALL: Virtually Together."
Thank you to everyone who donated, watched, participated in any way! Special thanks to all of our artists and hosts for all your contributions!
"REHEARSAL: The Show" proved that "the show MUST go on!"
What would have been Southwest Arkansas Arts Council and Hempstead Hall's first community theater stage production, turned out to be the #SWActors' first live-streamed event!
