    Confessions from the Prairie

    7:00 pmHistoric Gillioz Theatre

    A Night at the Gillioz with Alison Arngrim

    121231315The historic Gillioz hosts Alison Arngrim in a one-woman comedy show entitled “Confessions From the Prairie” on Saturday, October 1.

    Arngrim is best known for her role as Nellie Oleson in the long-running hit television series “Little House On The Prairie” that continues to entertain audiences in syndication. Embracing her role as the mean-spirited rival on the show, Arngrim has become a New York Times Best Selling author with “Confessions of A Prairie Bitch: How I Survived  Nellie Oleson and Learned To Love Being Hated”. She continues to amuse audiences through her many film, television, stage and multi-media appearances.

    Her one woman show “Confessions From The Prairie” has become a world-wide phenomenon, having been performed to packed houses in New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Green Bay, San Francisco, Seattle, and in France, where Arngrim performs entirely in French to standing room only crowds.

    In addition to her entertainment career, Arngrim has a long history of activism. In 1986, when her friend and “Little House husband” co-star, Steve Tracy, passed away due to complications of HIV/AIDS, Arngrim immediately began volunteering at AIDS Project Los Angeles. From 1989-1993 she served as Program Manager at Tuesday’s Child, an organization assisting children and families affected by HIV and AIDS. She currently serves as California Chair, National Spokesperson and Founding Board Member on The National Association to Protect Children, or PROTECT.org, fighting to give children a legal and political voice in the war against child abuse.

    Arngrim will sign pictures and copies of her book in the lobby after the performance.

    AIDS Project of the Ozarks sponsors the evening, and proceeds benefit APO’s efforts to provide medical, testing, and educational services in 29 counties in Southwest Missouri. Grove Pharmacy and Grove Spa are additional sponsors of the event.

    Tickets for Alison Arngrim – Confessions From The Prairie go on sale at 10AM on Friday, September 2 at the Gillioz Box Office at 417.863.9491 or online at WWW.GILLIOZ.ORG. Ticket prices begin at $17. The performance is Saturday, October 1, 2016 at 7PM, with doors opening at 6PM. This performance is intended for mature audiences, and contains adult themes and language.
