After an extended hiatus from the stage, Alan steps into his adult debut role as Santa. While his formative years on Long Island exposed him to numerous Broadway spectacles during his schooling, the majority of his adult life spent in West Virginia left scant room for pursuing his theatrical passion. Instead, he dedicated his time to the legal profession and later delved into the realm of social work. Relocating to Kauai alongside his family three years ago, Alan observed the sheer delight his daughter Samantha derived from her involvement in the Summer Stars program. This experience ignited his own enthusiasm, propelling him to enthusiastically embrace a role in this production.
