The other side of Hollywood is coming to the entertainment capital of the world.

THE BLACK BOX is proud to present the next concert in its Broadway Series: Sara Jean Ford on Friday, November 16 at 8 pm. In her solo concert, "Generations," Sara Jean Ford explores all the many generations of music introduced to her over the years and how that music has come to shape and heal her as she made her way to the Broadway stage and beyond. Whether it was through her Grandmother's love of cheesy soprano ballads, Her Mother's love for Joni Mitchel and all things Beatles, or her Daughter's love of Disney music and... Barbie, Sara weaves together a story of passion, perseverance, and positivity through a love of music, and the many generations that introduced it all to her.

Alison Arngrim (Nellie Oleson from Little House on the Prairie) and Carter Calvert portray Louise Seger and Patsy Cline, respectively, in the Ted Swindley comedic musical entitled ALWAYS…PATSY CLINE, which is based on a true story that has humor that can be appreciated both by major Patsy Cline fans and people who never heard of her. I highly recommend this comedy.

Alison Angrim, known as Nellie Oleson of Little House on the Prairie will now star as Louise Seger in ALWAYS...PATSY CLINE, a musical based on the true story of Patsy Cline and her fan Louise Seger who would become her friend. The show is scheduled to open on August 17th at the Sharon Playhouse in Sharon, CT.

And you thought she was out spoken on the hit NBC series Little House on the Prairie, as the girl America loved to hate -Nellie Oleson.  Declared "TV history's #1 one bitch" by Vanity Fair, Ms Arngrim's best-selling memoirs, 'Confessions of a Prairie Bitch: How I Survived Nellie Oleson and Learned to Love Being Hated,' (Harper Collins) had an unprecedented run on the New York Times Best Seller's List. (Audio available on Amazon, both as a CD and MP3 format, by Tantor Media). Ms Arngrim has taken the show, 'CONFESSIONS ...' on the road to critical acclaim around the world with her open and honest look at life as a child star, being part of a famous family, surrounded by notorious friends, dealing with preditors and the draw backs to being one of the most hated characters in TV history.
