About This Show

“Secrets fly like tumbleweeds in a tornado as the former-Nellie dishes dirt about her Little House cohorts and show-biz folks.” – AOL Digital City

“wickedly funny… brings Nellie Oleson back to the irreverent faithful, sans apologies” – Los Angeles Times

Comic, former child star, outspoken activist, and 2006 TV Land Award Winner Alison Arngrim returns to New York with Confessions of a Prairie Bitch for one weekend only, May 12 & 13 at The Cutting Room. Best known as acid-tongued, pre-Midol meanie Nellie Oleson from Little House on the Prairie, Alison Arngrim presents an uproarious evening of storytelling and stand-up about life as everyone’s favorite toxic pre-teen brat, complete with petticoats and ringlets. Never afraid to dish the dirt on TV land, she let all the secrets loose of Little House on the Prairie, Hollywood and much more. Recalling her life and career as bitchy Nellie Oleson, Arngrim startles audiences internationally with off-color jokes about child stars and TV icons of the 1970’s and 80s.
