Alan Onickel to Make Debut at The Green Room 42 with THAT INSTANT
Performer, teacher, and choreographer Alan Onickel will be making his Green Room 42 debut in That Instant. Beginning in South Africa with a life-altering near-fatal car crash, this autobiographical show follows Alan from his visit to "Coma Land" through multiple surgeries, therapies, doctors, pharmaceuticals, recuperation and finally his return to New York City. Music composed by the incomparable Drama Desk and Helen Hayes award winner Ed Dixon and played by gifted Musical Director Chip Prince. Everyone deals with obstacles in life. That Instant tells of Alan Onickel's unpredictable journey surviving those hurdles.
One night only at The Green Room 42 (Yotel NYC, 570 10th Ave. at 42nd St.) on Tuesday, March 17th at 7pm. Tickets are available from $20 online at https://thegreenroom42.poptix.com.

His choreography has been enjoyed by audiences in the US, Australia, Japan, Switzerland, Israel, Finland, Brazil and more.
