The Nasty Nellie Oleson Tour - hosted by Nellie herself!
Alison Arngrim grew up in Hollywood - and it shows!
, She became a television icon with her portrayal of Nasty Nellie Oleson on
the classic show, Little House On The Prairie. Alison was one of the
lucky ones that made it out of childhood stardom alive and reasonably sane,
and continues to pack houses with her one woman show, Confessions of a
Prairie Bitch, and being an activist for the fight against child abuse
and finding a cure for AIDS.
During this special 3 hour tour, Alison will fascinate you with personal
anecdotes from her zero degrees of separation to the legends. You name it,
Nasty Nellie has a story for just about everyone from Liberace to Michael
Jackson, from Paris Hilton to the Manson Family.
In three hours, Alison will share her personal history geographically, from
Gardner Elementary School (with Michael Jackson) and Hollywood High
School to the legendary Garden of Allah and the Chateau Marmont.
Of course there will be plenty of time for Q and A! Included is also an
autographed photo of Alison, and an opportunity to have your picture taken
with her. Don't forget your camera, this is a rare treat - a tour
given by an international television icon!
Alison has been there and seen it all, and for a limited time, is sharing it
with us, the lucky ones at Dearly Departed Tours.
Richard Sebastian is co-producer and co-host of this event.
